Correction and Punishment.
|
T |
here must always be consequences to unwise decisions and bad choices. Because obedience and trust are so critical, disciplines require careful attention. This was something most of us learned as direct project participants. Punishments for failing to meet the requirement of obedience or for failing to be attentive to assigned disciplines were integrated into our instructional process. Punishments were the inescapable product of misbehavior. Because they can also reflect a certain failure of the process, they were always appropriate and fair, and assigned with regret. Relatively few women can experience that level of instruction. Nevertheless correction is a part of the formation process we use today for those who request monitored or mentored support. For unmonitored community members, our Internal Disciplines forum provides a basis for self-correction while maintaining a clear focus on our objectives.
“i was shocked when i realized that being obedient to [my] disciplines made me feel safe and comforted...”—mireille
“I realized then that the way you punished me was to make me see that I had turned away from the very things I wanted in my life so badly. I would rather have been spanked.” —sis
