:::There is a normal transition that takes place between dependence and independence. There are laws regulating "child labor." But children can work, that's never been prohibited, it is merely restricted. Opportunities abound. Especially children can work in their own businesses, with little restriction. Compulsory education, it turns out, can be flexibly addressed, such that a child's business, if that's what they choose to do, is part of the educational plan.

:::If we believe that children are ''not free,'' then we react to that, and we see children as victims. If we believe that they ''are free,'' we can support them in exercising their freedoms. Freedom is always limited, it's intrinsic. That is, we are always free within the boundaries of, say, gravity, etc. Yet we can be free from gravity, in free fall. For a time. Forever in orbit or in free space, except there is no such thing as free space. Essentially, "free" is not a fact, it's a stand or interpretation. The interpretation you ''choose'' runs your life. You imagine, Nathan, that freedom is a fact, and you consistently point to lack of freedom. And so your life displays exactly what you see, i.e., what you interpret. --[[User:Abd|Abd]] ([[User talk:Abd|talk]]) 15:25, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
