You need to show him who is boss and I'm not being funny when I say that. He needs to learn that you are the boss of him or he will continue to lose respect for you and call the shots in your home for the rest of his childhood.
Designate a place in your home which is for when he is naughty. Whenever he does not do what you say, you take him to that naughty area and every time he moves you put him back there. He will learn through conditioning that doing something bad results in loss of privilege.
Don't scold him, he needs to learn through positive affirmation instead. You can take other privileges away but don't withhold food or other necessaries. Show love but not when he has done something wrong and if he cries or gets upset when he is missing his privilege ignore it, that's the only way he'll learn or he will learn that he can emotionally blackmail you.
