Being informed and involved: you want to know what’s happening, be part of decisions about your life, and understand any plans that affect you.
Clear explanations: you want to be told about decisions, why they were made, and what will happen next— especially if things don’t go the way you hoped.
Support: you need help as an individual, as well as being part of a family.
Someone to speak up for you: sometimes you might need someone to help you share your thoughts and make sure your voice is heard.
Protection: you should always be kept safe from harm, abuse, and poor treatment by anyone, whether that happens inside or outside of your home.
