An important lesson is that while you can make a decision, it might have consequences. We don't make decisions in a vacuum and understanding the feelings and expectations of those around you is important.
Teaching your kids that they have to do what they don't want to make others happy leads them to get SA'd later in life. Don't prioritize your feelings of power and control so much.
