ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Self determination

Self-determination is about making your own decisions. It means you have the right to decide what is best for you, no matter what anyone else says. For example, if your parents tell you to wear a certain outfit to school, but you don't like it, you have the right to make your own decision to pick a different outfit. Self-determination gives you the power to think and make choices for yourself that you believe are the best.
