PS we copuld get into a huge existentialistic discussion of whether we own anything. That would be a waste of time. Owning proeprty means you have control over it, you have the right to sell it, you have the right to convey it to your heirs etc. The bank has a lien on a property but not an ownership in my house. As I said, I can write a check and unilaterally make them go away. They cant make me go away inlaterally.
It seems you got my point about children. The fact that something can be taken away under a given set of circumstance doesnt necessarily convey ownership.
As for the “ignorance” comment, I didnt call you “ignorant” it was one of 3 possible explanations I put forth for explaining you behavior. Personally, I subscribe to option 3.
