Keep Sweet 

1. A phrase often used by abusers or abusive systems to control their followers. The abuser needs ego affirmation so they do not merely demand compliance, but also that the follower have a "sweet" attitude. The implication is that as long as the abusee "keeps sweet" they won't have any trouble, but if they do not, there will be negative reprecussions. This phrase was used by FLDS leader Warren Jeffs with his followers.

2. This can be applied in less abusive situations as well. A boyfriend might tell a girlfriend to "keep sweet", meaning "don't get upset about this" He may not be threatening her, but the implication of being sweet instead of addressing a wrong she should be sweet.

Def 1. Cult Leader: "Keep sweet, Alice, I don't want to have to do anything you would regret"

Def 2. Boyfriend: "Keep sweet baby, it's no big deal"
