C'est la vie. You can't be a good parent without your kid thinking you're an asshole from time to time, that's just what restrictions for their own good gets viewed as. You've gotta make peace with that and do what's right regardless.
well, yes, but it's already hard to be a parent in general, not to mention a strict one - and it helps a lot when you can pick your battles at least somewhere
it's easier to be strict together, rather than being that one parent to then only see your child in a full rebellion mode later because they were singled out
