"Don't let me get away with anything" implies that you are either TRYING to get away with things, and getting caught, or else that you are incapable of controlling your behavior and need to be watched all the time. Neither behavior is acceptable to me. Within a SCENE, sometimes SAM behavior is amusing. In daily life, I won't tolerate it. I wouldn't tolerate brattiness and deliberate disobedience in a child, why would I accept it in an adult? If a person has behavior that needs to be altered or controlled, well that is the time for behavior modification work. Not everyone is up for that kind of thing either. Domme does not equal therapist. Domme does not (generally) equal mommy. If an adult (submissive) does not respond to simple directions, with the motivation being the continued contact with the dominant--ie, PLEASING the dominant, chances are the sub is just being manipulative. {Note that I am not talking about something life changing like helping the sub quit smoking, or lose weight.} In my observation, male doms often go in for "training", a word that makes me cringe when used in a non-work or animal context. The idea of controlling someone's every move is very appealing to many males. There are women like that, too, but I question how much respect controllers of both sexes have for their subs in the long run. Ms Francine
