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.

Slaves were considered chattel, or property, because they were treated as commodities that could be bought, sold, and owned by others. This status allowed slave owners to exploit their labor without regard for their rights or humanity. It also sought to reinforce the idea that slaves were not entitled to the same legal protections as free individuals.
