It's maybe cheesy but it's something assertion related. I think.

Every man, woman, and child has the following rights by virtue of the fact that they exist.
These are reasonable and ordinary expectations, which create appropriate boundaries.

I have the right to make my own choices.
I have the right to follow my own values and standards,
as long as I am not abusive towards others.
I have a right to dignity and respect.
I have a right to all of my feelings.
I have a right to express myself as long as
I am not abusive toward others.
I have a right to determine and honor my own priorities.
I have a right to recognize and accept my own value system as appropriate.
I have a right to have my needs and wants respected by others.
I have the right to say no when I feel I am not ready, unsafe,
or that it violates my values (this goes for kids too...they have
the right to say "no" to their parents)

I have the right to give and receive unconditional love.
I have the right to enjoy being sexual and celebrate my sexuality.

I have the right to grieve when I get something I didn't need or want.
I have the right to joyfully receive without feeling guilty.
I have a right to healthy relationships of my choice.
