have you ever felt that you're not raising your kid well when he/she doesnt follow your words or when he's being different from what you wanted?? I have a 1.7 yeaor old son, and sometimes, he just really hard to manage and he does what is opposite to what i tell him, and sometimes i feel like failing to raise him as a good boy. And though I know, he's still so young and doesn't really understand all what I'm telling him, I still feel that way. is this normal?

Not good for children to do only what parents say. He will not have imagination and not to deal in the future. Parents must be respected children personality But in hard times have to understand that parents love him.

Well, not only do I think that it is normal to feel like we are making mistakes in raising our children. I have two children of my own and I am trying to do everything in my power to make sure that they are raised right. However, there are times that I know that they are doing things that I wouldn't expect from them at all, and those are the times that I really believe that I am making mistakes with the children.
