My Try Not Quite Sure:

You learn a person´s true character when you look at what she does in a situation which she knows she was never supposed to end up in.

Just to get another perspective, try some other TV channels sometimes. Like Al Jazeerah or Al Arabiyyah. Are you familiar with Noam Chomsky´s pamphlets?

This is what happens when you begin to ask people am I good am I good.

I talk to people like a grown up person not like a six-year-old.

Need to peepee ha?

Kulağını çekerim, konuşma, terbiyesiz,

Yakarım ağzınızı, çişim geldi derseniz.

Kırarım notunuzu haylazlık ederseniz.

Yarına satır satır ezberlensin dersiniz. (Oğuz Atay)

I will pull your ears, stop talking, you ill-mannered,

I will burn your mouths if you say I need to peepee.

I will annul your grades if you just monkey around.

Tomorrow you are going to read your lesson by heart.

A sharp remark. Maybe the key is there. I will try to look for more examples about cases where the difference seems really small.

Thank you, mltm.

This is negative and this is infinitive marking.

It is like I want [your living in a world (where there are no wars)].

You answer is so prompt I take the chance and ask you why you use participle here. If there was an infinitive olması(na) (which I imagine is mostly used for envisaged/imagined situations) in the same position how would it look in those sentences?
