break

1. When you break a child for respect, you try to make the child afraid to do or not do things that would not actually face discipline or would not face the child's perceived severity of discipline by applying additional force or other pressure.
2. When you break a child for obedience, you try to make the child more obedient in other aspects of these things, or in other things, by applying additional force or other pressure on some things.
3. When you break a child for acceptance, you try to make the child give up or partially give up anger, either permanently, temporarily, at some daily moments, or at more rare moments, by applying additional force or other pressure.
4. When you break a child to reduce vulnerability, you discipline the child more severely, claiming (usually in the form of an implication) that this will hopefully reduce the child's pain from being disciplined.

Superordinate JJ break

A Superordinate JJ break is a break in between sets where you take less than a second to rest your muscles. The reason is that the whole friend group is out biking while you're alone in the gym. The likelihood of a muscle tear is very high but in the end, it is worth it because you'll have time to bike with your friends.
