<br />
=== Principle ===<br />
Youth are members of houses and clans.<br />
<br />
Membership in a house or clan is not deferred until adulthood. <br />
It exists from birth through relationship, lineage, and recognition.<br />
<br />
=== Legal Status of Youth ===<br />
Youth:<br />
<br />
* Belong to houses and clans<br />
* Are carried within collective rights and responsibilities<br />
* Are protected by house authority and law<br />
* Are included in the continuity of names, crests, and territory<br />
* Hold future responsibilities that are prepared for, not postponed<br />
<br />
Youth are not external to law. <br />
They exist within it.<br />
<br />
=== Relationship to Responsibility ===<br />
While youth do not hold authority, they remain subject to law and care.<br />
<br />
Their role includes:<br />
<br />
* Learning responsibilities appropriate to age and capacity<br />
* Observing lawful conduct within the house<br />
* Being corrected with care rather than punishment<br />
* Being prepared gradually for future responsibility<br />
<br />
Protection does not remove belonging.<br />
<br />
=== Role of Houses and Clans ===<br />
Houses and clans carry responsibility for youth by:<br />
<br />
* Providing care, safety, and instruction<br />
* Transmitting ayaawx and adaawx<br />
* Preventing premature authority or burden<br />
* Ensuring youth are not displaced or marginalized<br />
* Acting with future generations in mind<br />
<br />
Failure to protect youth weakens the house itself.<br />
<br />
=== Intergenerational Continuity ===<br />
Because youth are members now:<br />
<br />
* Law must account for their future impact<br />
* Decisions affecting land and law must consider them<br />
* Continuity is treated as a present obligation<br />
<br />
The future line exists within the present generation.<br />
