if the laws of physics were created at the moment of the big bang, wouldn't that mean that all time was decided from that point forward?

The laws of physics did not spring into being ... ever.They are creations of man which describe the observed behaviours
of the matter and energy within our limits of
observation.

so that means that time was nothing- that is until living beings were factored in- we can are not controlled by the laws of physics, we are only restricted by them.

Time doesn't actually exist at all. It is convenient for us to
interpret out perceptions of the universe against a passage
of time.Try measuring time.By that I mean get a like-for-like comparision the way we do with
length or mass.Read 'Slaughterhouse five' by Kurt Vonnegut ... I know it's
fiction, but he has an interesting slant on time

If you are really only 12 ... keep thinking ... you're
pretty good at it already.Read lot's too ... you always need something to think on... and enter debates that challenge the intellect ... oh you are ..
er .. that's good then
