poner pena a la vida, es amenazar a alguien pero depende tambien del contexto. SI una madre dice me ha puesto pena a la vida mi hijo, es porque su hijo le dice que no haga ciertas cosas o no diga algo. Sin embargo si ya no es su hijo, quiere decir que su vida esta en peligro.

This translated to English is : You have turned my life into a living hell.
