It seems the question of what a "person" is and who has the authority over it is key. I have reasons to think this is so.

YOU ARE NOT A PERSON. You HAVE a PERSON. This was NOT a choice you made, and it’s not your FAULT! You have the RIGHT TO “SECURITY OF THE PERSON“! THIS DOES NOT MEAN WHAT YOU THINK IT MEANS!
