Nah, that’s self-defeating bullshit. As parents we are flawed broken humans, just like all the other flawed broken humans. Just because a parent has a problem with alcohol, or excessive phone use, or any other vice, does not absolve them of setting reasonable restrictions for their children. Is it hypocrisy? Probably. Is it less effective than if the parent did not have said vice? Certainly. Is it better to set limits for your kid and explain why? Definitely.
