6. If I want it, it’s mine.
7. If I can see it, it’s mine.
8. If I saw it first, it’s mine.

10. If I play with it long enough, it’s mine.
11. If I say it’s mine, it’s mine.
12. If it looks like mine, it’s mine.
13. If I can play with it better than you can, it’s mine.
14. If I’m doing or building something, all the pieces are mine.
