When I was a teenager I used to sit for a family who had a little girl about Alex's age who had learned "My body, my choice" from her mom and who used to attempt to use it to win any argument, which led to me saying things like, "Yes, Ginna, it is your body and your choice and I respect your autonomy, but you still have to move your bike out of the driveway so it won't get run over when your mom comes home."
