Training. Be what I want you to be, or there will be punishment.

Punishment by withdrawal, punishment by withholding. Punishment by the weapons of the weak: lies, manipulations, dissimulations. By withholding above all.

So much punishment that eventually that's all there is, and the "relationship" is a scorched landscape of battle damage: charged craters where punishment and rebellion met and exploded.
