A mother’s recent video has struck a chord with fellow parents.

Kristina Kuzmic, a YouTube star and mother of three children, posted the clip titled “I’m not your friend, kid! (Because I love you.)”

In it, she outlines how it’s her job to be her kids’ mother--not their best friend.

She urges other parents not to give in to their children’s demands when the kids get angry, insisting parents should “hold [their] ground.”

The video has received lots of praise. 

“All parents need to adopt this approach,” said one user.

“Woooooo! Go mama!!! My mum and I talk about this all the time hahaha,” said another. 

“I watched this TWICE because I thought it was so funny! Well done!!” added yet another.
