A quick definition of pupillus:

Term: PUPILLUS

Definition: In ancient Rome, a pupillus was a child who had not yet reached puberty and was under the care of a tutor. A tutor was a person who was responsible for taking care of the pupillus and making decisions for them until they became an adult. Girls and women also had tutors, but this practice ended in later times. The word "tutela" was used to describe this type of guardianship.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Pupillus is a Latin term used in Roman law to refer to a child who has not yet reached puberty and is under the authority of a sui juris tutor. This tutor is responsible for the child's well-being and making decisions on their behalf.

Example: In ancient Rome, if a child's parents died or were unable to care for them, they would become a pupillus and be placed under the care of a tutor. The tutor would manage the child's finances, education, and other important matters until they reached puberty and became legally responsible for themselves.

This term is important in understanding the legal system of ancient Rome and the role of guardianship in protecting the rights of children.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.
