Time.

Stop hanging out with friends and spend that time with your kid.

Don’t be your kids best friend, be your kids parent.

I've definitely had the best friend bit come back on me. I think I would get more respect (Rodney Dangerfield voice) if I acted more adult around them. It's just so much fun to play with them.

You can play with them, just don’t be their friend, be their parent.
