subjecting
Making someone undergo
Subjecting is the act of causing someone or something to undergo an experience, often an unpleasant one: The experiment involved subjecting rats to extreme temperatures.
It can also mean bringing under control or dominion: The empire set about subjecting neighboring territories.
The word carries connotations of imposed force or authority—you subject others to things they wouldn't choose themselves.
