OK.......what i think you are asking is........what happens when the children grow up.....and have lives of there own. Are the "children" still subject to the "parents" will.

A tricky question........

I am assuming that you are talking about parents living in the same house as the adult children......so i will answer along these lines......Adult parents........living with their adult children...

Yes.....i do believe this to be a very large unspoken problem.........and very guilt ridden one as well. The question of extended families. If you grow up and are Dominate yourself the question becomes even more complicated.

The question becomes...As a dominate adult ( or submissive one for that matter) are we still subject to our parents will?

In my opinion the answer is NO..........If my parents are living with me (and then again even if they are not).....and in essence in some way under MY control......then there is no choice......the parents should now be in the submissive role. The parents may state their opinion........but it is MY home and I should have the final decision.....not the parents.

The children are not necessarily "submissive" nor are the "parents" necessarily "Dominate".. As an adult child you are no longer required to obey.......As the parent, they need to understand that their children are no longer wearing the collar of childhood.

As the adult child........you should listen to what you parents have to say but not necessarily .....jump through the hoop.. As the parent they may mentor, but not expect unconditional obedience.
