A quick definition of si sit legitimae aetatis:

Term: SI SIT LEGITIMAE AETATIS

Definition: SI SIT LEGITIMAE AETATIS is a Latin phrase that means "if he (or she) is of lawful age." This phrase was commonly used in historical documents to determine if someone was old enough to participate in certain activities or make certain decisions. For example, if someone wanted to sign a legal contract, they would need to prove that they were of lawful age. This phrase is still used today in some legal contexts.

SI SIT LEGITIMAE AETATIS

If he (or she) is of lawful age.

This is a Latin phrase used in historical documents to indicate that a person is old enough to do something legally.

Example 1: The legal drinking age in the United States is 21. If a person is asked for their ID at a bar, they may be asked to prove that they are of "legitimate age" or "SI SIT LEGITIMAE AETATIS."

Example 2: In medieval times, a person had to be of "legitimate age" to inherit property or hold certain positions of power. If a person was not yet of age, they would need a guardian to manage their affairs until they were old enough.

These examples illustrate how the phrase "SI SIT LEGITIMAE AETATIS" was used to determine whether a person was legally allowed to do something. In the first example, a person must be of "legitimate age" to drink alcohol legally.

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.
