You can say that a child belongs to its parents but in what way do parents own their child?

I can think of one way: Ownership equals responsibility. If you own a dog that bites your neighbor, you are responsible for their medical bills. If you own a car and someone drives it and wrecks it, you are responsible for damages. Similarly, if your child breaks the law or damages property, you are responsible for making sure the damage gets paid for and making sure your child makes it to court or community service requirements. Because the child belongs to you, you are responsible for his/her actions.

If you do not have insurance and someone hit you in the back with insurance can you have your cost paid for in Louisiana?

While you may receive a traffic citation for driving without insurance, the individual who is responsible for the collision should pay for damages. If the other driver was found at fault, he/she should pay for damages, just as you should pay for damages that YOU cause. If the police investigated the collision and found that you were both at fault, you will probably have to pay your own damages. If you did not have the police investigate the collision, you may be stuck with the damages unless the other driver agrees to pay and admitted fault.
