What is power ?

Power is having control over someone or something. For example my mother still has power over me because I still live in her house; therefore, i have to follow all the rules she has in the house and do chores around the house like wash clothes, dishes, etc. Also if I go out I have to atleast let her know where Im going so that she wont be worried as she says. Power is also having others follow you in the same things you do or say. Sometimes power can be used for a good reason but it can also be bad. It all depends on how you try to use it.
