I'm not sure I'd call my reaction "tired" but there was a time that I ended a disciplinary arrangement for exactly that reason--she said she needed discipline to work on some issues, but didn't actually do any work on them. In effect, it seemed like she just wanted an excuse for a regular spanking, which didn't fit with my goals, which were to actually help somebody improve. And, yes, she definitely considered me to be the "bad-guy" when I told her that and ended our arrangement.
