The only thing I know, for sure, here and now, at this moment, are the thoughts within this body.

Before thought, Am.

During thought, Am.

Afterthought, I Am, i.e., You Was.

If you say so.

The logic of linguistics, and life, is the puppet-master saying so through manifestations of the inevitable; it is not the baiter master, or conversely, the master baiter who plucks billions of strings into a strange harmony that everyone somehow, understands.

what are you talking about here? the example is simply a example of the justification of the child's place in the house hold by virtue of being born into the household.

It's an example of your justification. I'd agree that your justification is shared by many other people . Your justification might even be incorporated in law or in the mores of some religion for all we know. However I have given examples , two circumstances where the child is not allowed to walk in their parents' home without permission. So your justification is a subjective one.
