Let's go back to when you were 5 years old, you are playing and you pick up a handful of sand and throw it. You liked the feel of the sand and you pick up more only this time you throw the sand at another child. She's crying, your perplexed as to why and two mothers are running. Yours arrived and grabs your arm. Say your sorry, say your sorry she yells and you are not sorry but say it any way. The next time at the playground you throw sand at her for getting you in trouble.

Well lets see, if we know what 'coerced' means, we should be able to figure out the rest. Assuming that is that we have the same ability to reason that any 12 year old might have. Forcing someone to do something doesn't change the way they think about that thing, it just forces them to do it. Was that so hard?

Maybe it means someone tries to force you to change your behavior(physically), but mentally it is still embedded unless you change your behavior yourself.
