I agree, J.T. Putting “friend” as highest priority certainly is problematic, but I do think there is a way to be friends with your kids without sacrificing authority. It’s not easy, though!

I’m glad you didn’t put “friend” on there. A lot of bad-advice givers will tell you that you need to be your child’s “friend” as if they have an equal authority in the relationship. Great post though!
