Possessive pronouns are wrong in many cases, since a lot of times they don't indicate an actual possession. Jenny has a teacher, whose teacher is it? Hers. But she doesn't possess him. amirite?

Unless she is, of course, a demon. Then she may possess him

But the title of that girls teacher is why it's possessive.

That's because English is a poor language that uses the same words for hundreds of different meanings

Same problem in german, and this language is very specific to say the least.

That's not really specific to English, every language groups some meanings and separates others, kinda just how they work lol
