Question: What is one word to describe some one who lets some control them and make decisions for them? I'm writing a paper, and I need to finish this sentence but I cant think of a good word.. please help!!\nGilman writes her story to show how you should make your own choices and decisions and not live your life letting some else make them for you and control you because essentially that is not living, that is being (a) ___________ .

Answer: I suggest that you rewrite that part.  For example;  Gilman's 'The Yellow Wallpaper' illustrates her belief that one should take responsibility for their own decisions rather than allowing others to control them.  It appears that her view of life is that to allow others such a level of control prevents the individual from fulfilling the potential of their life.\nI think that you should include some quotes to illustrate why you believe this to be the case.
