I am very much not a cool parent. It's sad, really, because I have so many tattoos that kids always seem to think I will be a cool parent. Out of all my kids' friends' parents, I am the only one who makes their friends call me by my last name. Which is particularly cruel in my case, as my last name is a very long, complicated one.
Recently I made a comment to the effect that I am not a strict parent or a lax one, and both of my teenaged kids agreed, so I figure it must be true. Believe me, if there was a chance to yell at me that I was wrong, they would have taken it.
