daddy issues

i started playing daddy a few months back cuz it felt like the right fit for me and my sub. we have these intense scenes where i spank her hard, tell her what to do, make her feel small but safe in our dynamic. last night she cried during a scene though, and it really got to me, made me wonder if i’m going too far, or if this is just part of being daddy? readers think its normal to have my sub break down like that sometimes?
