Well, he is mine in the Jerry Springer, "who fathered that child" sense.

I am only stating the way that people think of such things.

I do feel a strong bond to my child and I do want some control over how he is treated and taught by others.

I don't think of him as an object of ownership, except for that I do value him over him above some random child.

It's not really a different mechanism than any other law, just that the positions are completely antithetical and there are nontrivially sized pockets where each opinion prevails.

I think we are in accord.
