Being Domesticated means being indoctrinated into the ways of the family.
It is being enslaved to the principles of family life.
Family principles are the foundational beliefs that are passed down through the lineage from generation to generation.
Children freely enslave themselves to the domesticity of family life when it meets their emotional needs.
When children do not get their emotional needs met in a functional family environment, they become rebellious & undomesticated.
All children serve the emotional needs of their parents.
Indeed, for most parents, children are the central purpose of their life.
Animals are domesticated when they become enslaved to the needs of the family.
They play a secondary role, to children, in meeting the physical or emotional needs of the family.
Domesticated livestock serve as a source of food or revenue that the family physically need.
Domesticated pets serve the emotional needs of the family, in return for their own physical need for food & shelter.
Domestic servants serve the physical needs of the family and are afforded a lower position in the hierarchy than the family pets but a higher position than the family livestock.
Whether domestic animals are both enslaved & captive is determined by the need for them to be kept in enclosures.
Whether human servants are owned or paid determines the need for them to be free or captive.
Animals, and humans, that refuse to become domesticated and remain wild are kept in cages for reasons of family safety.
Being domesticated is not the highest expression of Humanity.
