Anyone else find it hard being a parent, and a sovereign individual who doesn't like being told what to do, telling your kids to just shut up and do what your told cuz I know better ššššš

Nope. I've never had a problem being a hypocrite when it comes to my kids.
Itās very difficult
Not really. Children need time to develop wisdom in order to understand the world and make decisions for themselves. In the meantime they must rely upon their parent's wisdom.
It's a parents job to get them to that point as quickly as possible
"Do as I say not as I do" comes from a place of love and wisdom.
Don't drink until you're old enough.
Don't smoke because I don't want you to become the nicotine addict that I am.
Etc.
Yup right there with you my friendā¦ I have to say to myself at times ākids donāt know what they donāt knowā itās frustrating knowing an outcome protecting your kids from said outcome only to be yelled at or mistreatedā¦ so I have come to realize experience is key with kids they need to experience those emotions that come with the outcome to help develop there empathyā¦ I like to think of what my parents used to say āTough Loveā
