Would you rather face the consequences of not putting that DVD in?

The term 'UM' has come into standard usage here on CM. However seeing all the posts regarding their influence and impact on adult relationships perhaps we should consider another acronym; 'LM' or 'Little Masters'. It seems that many here are here to serve them and worship at the alter of child worship.

Its a dramatic turn around from my formative years. Leaving the better or worse comparison to the wannabe social engineers, I only point to the differnence. The LM's were required to respect those who brought them into the world and who provide the ecconomic and emotional support to live in it. There was no reciprocity expected unless or until it was earned. Respect was a requirement for all people and property enforced stricter than any relationship rule. 'Disrespect' was a 'mortal sin' punished by damnation to a room not outfitted with HD-TV, video games, the internet, or even a pet 'rock'. Yeah, I know, anecdotal stories of the 'good old days' coming from an old fart and look how he turned out.

There was no need for my parents to make sure I was entertained for them to have alone time. "Go out and play" was an order as much as it was a suggestion and neither I nor my parents believed sending me out was putting me at risk or sentencing me to a life as a kidnapped white slave boy of a cruel psychotic serial pedophile. They didn't have to concern themselves that I'd get in "trouble" because they knew I knew their punishment was much worse than what could be handed out from any other civil or educational authority. They were my Master - I sure as hell never thought for a moment they were mine.

Today's LM's have an expectation to be served. They got it from us. When they fail in school they aren't kept behind, they 'master' their class and teacher making sure all the planets and stars revolve around them slowing them down to the slowest speed that can be maintained by the weakest LM. How disappointed they are when they are removed from the socially engineered protective environment and face the reality of the business community. All of a sudden English IS the predominant language and you are required to read, speak, and write it; and math has a specific answer.

An overstatement in response to the question of finding adult time to sustain a relationship? Not in my opinion. It is consistent with my believe that no person, Master or slave and labels in between, can serve 2 Masters. Make your relationship with your partner a priority and make the LM a switch to submission when it comes to you and time for each other will be there. Your other option is to continue to serve your LM and serve your 18 year self imposed sentence.

Not a chance. My um will always be my first priority whilst she lives in my house and is under my protection.

missturbation,
I find that sad. Not judgmentally sad, but sad from the standpoint of a relationship. The goal I desired for my LM's was for them to be able to function on their own. I supported them, but pushed them toward self sufficiency. I wanted them to see and appreciate that there is something greater than themselves in the household so they wouldn't be stunned and unable to function when they discovered that fact about themselves in the world outside the household. I point to your words; "whilst she lives in my house and under my protection". Isn't it also a parents job to prepare for condition outside that "protection"? Is that not also a reflection of love?

I think them fortunate that they've had that example for as long as they have, 20 years in the case of the youngest. However, even if they only had 10 or 15, the example was still provided and it didn't take away from the protection I provided nor the love we shared and still share.

Agreed - "Having" them isn't; serving them is.
