I would suggest always being true to yourself. Kids know if you're being genuine or not. My parents let me run free. I made mistakes, but I hated doing anything that would disappoint them. They didn't yell and scream when the police brought me home in the back of the police car, but I felt very guilty. Not scared, guilty.
I'm far more straight laced than the rest of my family today. I'm quite a square.
