I think questioning authority is a good thing. I want my kids to be independent thinkers. They're kids, so yes, a lot of times I have to overrule them on things but I want them to know why I'm doing it.

Rosemond is in the local paper every other Tuesday.  No kids here, but the column is well written, and he makes LOADS of sense.

Get one of his books and try it out on the kiddlette for a couple months and see if parenting gets drastically easier (and the kid is just as happy/adjusted or even better).
