no amount of books prepare you to be a good parent.
the only thing that has helped me are three rules
be calm
be understanding
lead by example
it also helps to be firm. when you said no, it means no. no amount of begging or bargaining will change that. and when a punishment is given, it’s seen through to the end.

And the books all say
Damn. So close.
also in regards of lead by example, when you make a mistake as a parent, apologies are not optional.
