" A CHILD IS A PERSON AND NOT A SUB PERSON 
OVER WHOM THE
 PARENT HAS AN ABSOLUTE POSSESSORY INTEREST 
(THIS IS NOT OWNER SHIP 
BUT IN A STATUS SYSTEM, BECAUSE OF THE
 VULNERABILITY OF CHILDREN, THEIR 
POSSIBLE INABILITY TO
 MAKE CRITICAL DECISIONS IN A MATURE MANNER, SUCH AS
 IN THE IMPORTANCE OF GUIDANCE.).

THE TERM "CHILD" DOES NOT NECESSARILY MEAN 
A MINOR, 
BUT CAN INCLUDE ADULT CHILDREN AND 
EVEN ADULT NON DEPENDANT CHILDREN.

 CHILDREN ARE GENERALLY AFFORDED THE 
BASIC RIGHTS
 EMBODIED BY THE CONSTITUTION. 
THE EQUAL PROTECTION CLAUSE 
OF THE 14th AMENDMENT IS SAID TO APPLY TO
 CHILDREN--LEGITIMATE OR OTHERWISE, BUT EXCLUDING
 UNBORN CHILDREN."

 THE 14th AMENDMENT RESTRAINS THE 
STATE GOVERnMENTS
 FROM ABRIDGING THE RIGHTS OF 
VIRTUALLY ALL OF THE
 PERSONAL LIBERTIES AND RIGHTs GRANTED IN 
THE BILL OF RIGHTS 
TO PROTECTION AGAINST INFRINGEMENT 
BY STATE GOVERnMENT.
