Holding your own

See also: Hold my own. Most say it started out as meaning to stand your ground, to not let life, or anyone else for that matter, push you around. This is generally regarded to be the most likely, but more dull definition. But others have come to believe it means simply to cup your genitalia in your hand. This, frankly is wrong, but still mildly humourous.

"Holding your own is tough in court thesedays."

"He is managing to hold his own on the pitch."

"She is holding her own in this debate, don't you think?"

mind your own

Shortened version of "mind your own business." What you would tell to someone giving unwanted advice or butting in a debate/argument that has nothing to do with them.

1. Mom A. "Why do you feed your baby FORMULA??!! That's like feeding her poison!!!"

Mom B. At least I can FEED my baby. Shut up and mind your own.

on your own head be it

used to tell someone that they will have to take full responsibility for what they plan to do

At risk of being impertinent, if you make her head of the company, on your own head be it.

It's for your own good

Thing mostly said by an adult/parent

To justify controlling something that you percieve as wrong in your life because they want it that way.
Usually it is NOT for your own good, but just because they must force their will upon you.

Girl: what the hell, why are you not letting me talk to my friends

Mom: because they are giving you wrong ideas, it's for your own good

Girl: yeah right
