How are your rights as an American citizen different from your rights as a student?

Explanation:

- As an American citizen, you are required to get a job to pay for bills, and are in legal charge of your child if you have one.
- As a student, you are being governed by your parents, who are letting you live in their house, and letting you use things that they payed for.
- As a child, you are fully undeveloped and cannot think as logically as adults can, therefore you are capable to less things. Because of this, rights need to be justified to fit childrens' circumstances.
