People do not like to be treated like chattel.
Chattel slavery is a type of slavery in which a slave is treated as a piece of property and can be bought, sold, or inherited like any other commodity. In chattel slavery, the slave is considered the legal property of their owner, with no rights or freedoms.
This form of slavery is called chattel slavery. In chattel slavery, individuals are treated as property that can be bought, sold, or inherited. Children born to slave women also become slaves, inheriting the same status from their mothers.

chattel slavery
The term chattel means property. Indentured servitude means I own your labor for a set number of years. Chattel slavery means I own you, and can buy you, sell you, or do anything I want to you.
The slave is considered chattel - property - to be bought and sold in perpetuity like livestock. Once an individual becomes a chattel slave they are considered chattel for life. Not all forms of forced labor doom a person to slavery until the day they die. Many of them are only for a fixed period of time or until a fixed debt has been redeemed. Children born to chattel slaves are considered the property of the "owner" of the chattel slave just like a calf is the property of the owner of the cow. No other form of forced labor passes that status/lifetime-obligation down to the children.
