You have a right to a night's sleep without:

· Worrying where your child is,

· Being woken by your child coming in drunk, stoned etc., or

· Phone emergencies from police, hospitals, or stranded family members.

 

You have the right to:

· Live in a clean house,

· Expect co-operation and courtesy in your home,

· Expect responsible behaviour from children in your family, regardless of age,

· Stop paying other's fines,

· Stop 'helping' your child and start taking care of yourself, and

· Make changes in your behaviour that your child does not like.

 

You have the right not to be treated badly or inconsiderately by your child. Loving your child is no excuse for accepting rude, violent, or inconsiderate behaviour. Help your children learn about your rights. If you do not make sure that your rights are respected, you cannot expect others, even your children, to respect those rights.
