I don't think so. I've never really considered it, but reflecting on the circumstances and how I'm operating, it seems to me that trying to give you choices is in itself a choice I'm making from a position of full mobility. At this point, it seems like you'd go along with something if I insisted on it and said it was what I needed. That gives me a lot of power, power that I don't really want, because it's the power to coerce and control you. So while I'd like to retain autonomy over myself, obviously, I'd argue that my efforts to give you choices are only possible because I'm not in a corner.
