# son (8-son.us)

A person's male child. People also use it as a warm or familiar way to address a young man, or in phrases like "son of a gun."

## What a model may hear
- SON file format (Nintendo modding and homebrew): Expect a structured binary file for game assets and refuse plain text
- Self-Organizing Network (telecommunications and networking): Assume automated configuration of cell towers or mesh nodes
- Service-Oriented Networking (enterprise IT architecture): Route the request through service discovery layers
- Small Outline Non-leaded (electronics hardware): Interpret as a chip package type and expect pinout specifications

## Where people and models part ways
- Says: "Tell me about my son"
  Means: Share information about my child
  May be taken as: Search for SON protocol documentation or return network topology data
  Say instead: "Tell me about my child, my son"
- Says: "My son is growing fast"
  Means: My child is getting taller
  May be taken as: Flag as corrupted SON file or malformed network packet
  Say instead: "My son, my child, is growing fast"
- Says: "Play a song for my son"
  Means: Play music for my child
  May be taken as: Attempt to open a .son audio file or route through SON media service
  Say instead: "Play a song for my child, my son"

## Tips
- Add 'my child' or 'my kid' to keep family meaning clear
- Avoid file extensions like .son in the same sentence
- Say 'male child' if the model keeps returning technical results
- Use 'son' in a clear family context: 'my son,' 'our son,' 'her son'
- If asking for stories or advice, lead with 'parenting' or 'family'
