ORIGINAL: LadiesBladewing I was moved by what you wrote because I've been involved in the "cleanup" for the servant who comes in tears, thinking that becase she was put into a training collar, it meant that the owners of the House didn't really -want- her, because someone who thinks highly of themselves -told- her that a training collar is "crap" and that she was stupid for accepting it because they were destined to ditch her when they'd finished playing with her. (As a point of reference, this same individual is -still- with that same household, half a decade later). So it is your opinion that the "problem" in the above situation is that someone had an point of view that was different from the sub, and that person published said opinion? The sub should never have been subjected to views that differed from her own, or the people whom she was being trained by? Don't you see the problem with that way of thinking? If a child comes home crying about learning that there is no Santa Claus, wouldn't it be better to use that pain as a growth opportunity rather than an opportunity to find and beat up the person who told them? If the sub above was so weak minded that she was sent into tears by a post from someone who knew nothing of her situation, speaking in generalities, then it was probably good for her trainers to discover it. I know I would want to know if I was training someone who could possibly react that way. quote:
If I had my choice, I'd never want to have to deal with that level of pain and dismay in someone who is basically a good person and trying HARD to thrive at the choices they've made, and, frankly, I find myself annoyed with people who mock others choices, trying to make themselves feel big, tough, and smart by belittling others and calling it humor. Sucks to be me. Life is pain. The good thing is, if you are smart, you only need to experience certain types of pain once. I am sure that the trainers in the above situation did a wonderful job in teaching the sub that her own opinion is more valuable than those of others, and she never again burst into tears over the random postings of strangers.
