Slaves faced severe oppression, including forced labor, physical abuse, and limited freedoms.
Slaves were treated with kindness and respect as members of the family.
Slaves were considered property by law, not as individuals with legal rights or personhood. They did not have the freedom to make decisions about their own lives and were subject to the will of their owners.
Factors that controlled slaves' lives included their owners or enslavers, who dictated their daily tasks, living conditions, and punishments. Additionally, laws and social norms upheld slavery, restricting their movement and preventing autonomy. Fear of violence and separation from their families also played a significant role in controlling their lives.
Abolitionists who were caught with slaves could face fines, imprisonment, or even violence from pro-slavery groups or individuals. In some cases, they risked their lives to assist escaped slaves on the Underground Railroad.
The children of slaves born in states where slavery was legal were considered slaves themselves. They were considered the property of their owners and subject to the same laws and treatment as their parents. Many were forced into labor, sold, or remained enslaved for their entire lives.
Based on the question, there would seem to be a certain true common statement about the lives of African slaves in America ( colonial & US ) along with all African slaves in the Western Hemisphere would be this:Their lives had been torn apart by the pain of being forced into servitude.
Killing your own slaves was not a crime.

Slaves in the United States typically remained enslaved until they were freed by emancipation or through escape, purchase of their freedom, or being granted freedom by their owner. The length of time varied greatly depending on individual circumstances and the laws in place.
They ruled the serfs/slaves ( serfs are slaves) and they lived well instead of in a dirt floor hut.

Slaves in ancient Rome were subject to the "Tabulae Servi" or "slave codes," which governed their legal status, treatment, and rights. These laws outlined the duties slaves owed to their owners, restrictions on their mobility and behavior, and the punishments they could face. The exact regulations varied over time and across different regions of the Roman Empire.
Slaves would work from sunrise to twilight for their entire lives
ran for their lives to Hawaii
False. Serfs were legally bound to a certain piece of land and obligated to work for the lord who owned that land, but they were not considered slaves as they were not owned by the lord and did have some legal rights and protections.
