mom would tell me stop your f****** crying or I'll give you something to cry about and she would also threaten that we will be taken away if we ever repeat anything that was said in the house mom raised on scare tactics
Real men die young because they won't go see a doctor. So marry well and one day your wife will save your life by nagging you for 3 days to go to the doctor and you'll do it just to shut her up.
@@avisitorhere It's deeper than that. He needs to always be her rock, so she can feel secure and respect him. A part of that is self care, because part of caring for her is being in a position to do that.
I wanted to to stay home with my kids when they were little and my husband had a window washing business amd supported me and kids. After my kids were in school, my husband encouraged me to go to college. My husband is 10 years older than me and after he retired I was working full time supporting him. He did housework and cooked for me. He does all the yard work. So we took turns supported each other. We have been married 43 years happily.
I don’t think he would be against that. He just doesn’t want a man taking advantage of his girls. He said once you are in a marriage you can help one another.
I remember when my ex girlfriend told me that she was angry to see that when I was in trouble, I did not show up emotions like I'm panicking. Next time, I will just say that I'm old school.
Michael: "I'm a reformed Christian." Also Michael: "if you see a box that says slices and it didnt come from us, take out your gun and shoot em because they dont belong to us, or tell me and I'll do it." Quite possibly the best mob quote the worlds ever seen 😂😂😂
Im a female and My dad, Rest In Peace, was Sicilian and my grandfather was involved with the Italian mob and my dad spoke exactly like Michael and my dad taught me and my two older sisters and brother the same way. So I agree with what Michael is saying and what my dad taught me and I’m very grateful for it! ❤️🙏
I agree with Michael 100% in this. A man should be able to provide for a woman and his children. Key word “able” to. Women have to bear children. That’s a full time job itself.
As a Parent I can tell right away Michael is a GREAT father and did a wonderful job raising these girls. In a society where family seems to be more and more less of a priority I think that is an AMAZNG accomplishment! Bravo! 👍
Millennial here and I completely agree with Michael. A man has an obligation and commitment to take care of their wife and kids and get his ass to work to make sure they're always taken care of.
Her point was men need tender loving care at times too. I like the guy, but he comes from old school macho bs that can harm receiving love from a woman that makes him feel his vulnerability. A word abhorrent to the archetype. There are seasons for everything. I remember after Dad had heart surgery, I tried to cuddle up to him and he pushed me away with “I'm fine.” I felt hurt and rejected.
I'm 19, I think the same way, a man has to be a man and support his wife and kids no matter what the circumstances are and always look strong to everyone.
This is so amazing! For me its therapeutic to hear and see the interaction and communication between a father and his daughters. Super entertaining as well and light hearted at some points, but I love how you all get deep into conversations about opinions, empowerment and love. So, THANK YOU! Hope to see more of these sit downs with you and your daughters and hopefully some sit downs with your daughters and wife. Thanks for all that all of you do.
If you date one of his daughters and if it goes sideways, I would worry about their dad, but you should really worry about the brothers. That’s the Italian way.
Michael, I am 61 and have three beautiful daughters myself. Kids bring such joy and its great that you can talk with your girls about things you did. You have a beautiful family and God has truly blessed you. You are a great example of Gods ability to help us all. Keep up all the hard work for our Savior.
Not Pesci, well ok Pesci in the irishman in that case. In casino and goodfellas he plays a hotheaded psychopath which Michael seems to be the opposite of.
Any man should feel this way. My woman can work or stay at home it’s up to her but I gotta work. She pulls more than her weight at home, the least I can do is bring the money in
Michael is correct in that the man is always and forever subject to the burden of performance. Women are free to pick up a lot, a little, or none at all, but a man does NOT have this option. Like Chris Rock said, only children and dogs are loved unconditionally.
*100% these so called men now days are sooo wongly raised. I'm a a god in an old soul. Now days everyone thinks robbing, smoking, drinking, being disrespectful is cool and shit. And that's why this generations succkkkss*
This was a treat to watch. I've seen this man do sit downs with alot of ppl and he has never seemed uncomfortable till this one. Also I have hope after seeing this. I too have lost my family and have noone but maybe I too will have a great big family one day God willing. Michael is truly blessed. And I see so much in him in them
My dad went into bankruptcy we had no money- they were taking away the house and his business and almost the vehicles and my mom never left my dads side even tho my dad the man didn’t have money to support the wife and kids- my mom helped my dad and my dad got outta the situation got into a different business and made money from that business and together they have been married almost 40 years. Money is not everything- there is no I in team. Sometimes the man can support and sometimes doesn’t work out like that but what matters is the man and wife love each other and respect each other with their kids and not give up on each other. I love how the youngest daughter talk- very smart and beautiful girl.
As a father, this sit down was awesome!! Much love to your family and you! Keep it up and thank you for letting us viewers getting a glimpse in your family life.
This was really heart warming. I love seeing stuff like this. You have a beautiful family. I’ve had a bit of problems with violence in my past and have made the mistake of resorting to violence rather than using wisdom to better myself. Seeing you sitting down with your family, at peace warms my heart. I envy you. I have a strong relationship with my Dad. I’m his only son and the youngest and my old man always taught me to be strong. No pain, no gain. Men shouldn’t be spoiled. If it hurts, get used to it. If you’re tired then get over it. That’s just the way it has to be. The man protects the women. The man protects his family. You have to do what you have to do.
I agree with you Michael. Men: Provide, protect, and lead Women: Nurture and keep things together Edit: Will you please do a review of ‘Gangs of New York?’ That movie was intense!
I think its more of a guideline hardwired in our dna. Its not necessary to FORCE anyone into or FORCE anyone not to do it because some insecure intellectual doesnt like it. But if you leave people to their own devices they will naturally gravitate to these roles most of the time. There will obviously be exceptions. But thats what they are. Exceptions confirming the rule.
There is also the idea that men can't show weakness. In Cosa Nostra you probably were taught to never show weakness or others would take advantage of you.
I think some of his “men must provide theory “ came about because he was away all those years and he couldn’t provide, and now is overprotective of his daughters, and they brought it up a number of times. You work as a team in marriage, not one provider and one is looked after. I supported my wife fully when she went to med school, and she supported me fully when I was temporarily incapacitated from a motor vehicle accident. Things happen in life, and we took vows to support each other, not me on some pedestal like the 60’s
Wasn't it so terrible when in the 1960s men collectively began forcing women to work? It definitely wasn't a huge movement championed by and for women...
@@courtneybrubaker9738no, it’s ok to be vulnerable but it’s NOT ok to stay vulnerable. Men have a traditional role to fill as a protector and to appear strong even if they’re not. We must work to be strong to provide a safe space for our wives and children.
Mike I’ve said it before I’ll say it again, you’re a class act. God bless you and your family. Myself as a viewer would love to see more of these kind of family videos.
I spent 12 years in the same places Michael did and I can say for sure, any man who's gone through that deserves everything good that comes to him in life. Congratulations Michael you deserve it all and more.
I also love how open ur daughters are they kept it so real not trying to impress the audience by putting on a front. You guys are beyond words when it comes to how much heart u all have. I had to leave this because the other 2 comments weren't deep enough you deserved this last one. If all the stars aligned and luck was on my side id have a chance to speak with you Mike. I have many things figured out well but my full potential has not been reached yet. Your curse became your blessing and that is beautiful. As is your family.
No holds barred. Your daughters don't hold back Michael. You were lucky to leave this sit down in one piece.... I would definitely want the best for my daughters too. Money is everything... When poverty came in the door... Love went out the window. .. Great channel Mike. 👍🙏👏
I absolutely LOVE these family sit downs! I have three strong, accomplished sisters and the discussions we used to have were deep and revealing on many levels.
Mr Franzese has a refreshing, cleared-eyed view of masculinity and relationships. We need to hear more of this. God bless. Time for me to grab a slice.
I love all of your YT videos but this one......hands down one of the BEST! I’m sure you are an amazing father and the “old school ways” should still be upheld to this day. Your daughters are very blessed to have you lookout for them. 💜 True family love.
The young one is showing her youth. I remember being young and thinking love conquers all. But she doesn't understand that her perspective as a 22 year old isn't the right perspective. Michael and the older sisters were 100% right. If your partner can't support you if they needed too, they have nothing to offer you.
You cant say she is wrong because she has a diffrent perspective. she is literally saying thats its ok to help a guy when he is sick just like a guy should help a women imagine telling you wife/girlfriend im sick with cancer or im sick and need surgery and she tells you to man up like c'mon telling men they should hold in all there feelings is very mentally unhealthy. this aint the 70s no more things change.
Thanks MIke, that's what life is all about, great program! I Thank God every day, that my daughter turned out to be a smart and beautiful God fearing young woman. Your Kids are great, good heads on their shoulders. God bless you and your family.
I like the old school ways ,my father never showed weakness so we looked at him and new we were safe at all times, he was our rock and I believe that’s what Michael means and that character takes time to mold. So you see these days how some of these “old school ways” are looked at but where are we as a society, I don’t know it seems I call it the “ participation award syndrome” seems discipline , respect, honor, learning loss, learning work ethic to win and win is different for everyone. I have my first child 4 months away and yes little girl, it’s amazing the changes in me and I want her to look at me like the strongest man ever I guess, I want her to look at me like I did my father perfectly said should be in position haha anyway I hope you realize that you guys taking the time to put all these messages out you never no when they change someone’s life so I would like to say thank you from the bottom of my heart you guys god bless 🙏
I would have killed to have such a supportive Dad! I lost my Dad many years ago we clashed a lot but the last few years we were getting closer then he died. I still miss him.
I have so much respect for you, Michael. You put your heart and soul into being a father and role model, and it shows through each of your gorgeous children. Your daughters are so blessed to have you and Cammy as their parents. Continued prayers for Amanda, you, and your entire family. May God always hold the Franzese family in the palm of his almighty hands. 🙏🏼
@@michaelfranzese Michael, I offer this to your daughters: I know I'm only an outsider looking in, but your father turned his world upside down to be with your mother. Your Dad wants each of you to have that kind of man in your life. You're father isn't talking smack, it's the example he lives. Each of you deserves a man who will adore and provide for you because he wants to. Please don't settle. Trust that the best is truly yet to come.
I completely agree that a man has to be self sufficient and provide but i am 60 and old school too but the school back then was so much better than today.
No big deal, but I'm pretty sure it's "A man who doesn't SPEND TIME with his family can never be a real man." I've always loved that line, perhaps my favorite from GF Part 1. I don't know whether it makes you a "real man" or not, but I've always been of the belief that staying close with your family and spending time with your loved ones is incredibly important in life. Then again, I happen to have 2 great and loving parents, I get along with both my older brothers who are 7 and 9 years older than me respectively, and I love my niece and nephew and see them as often as I can, although my nephew is now a man himself and lives on his own so I don't see him quite as much (both are children to my brother who's 7-years older), and while all my grandparents passed away long ago, I really enjoy seeing the rest of my extended family and try to as often as I can. Unfortunately due to bastard ass Covid I haven't seen most of my aunts, uncles, or cousins in over a year. Not since Christmas 2019. Ordinarily I see all or most of them all the major holidays--Easter, then we get together for the 4th of July at my aunt and uncles lake house, then we have a couple joint birthday celebrations on each side of the family, then of course I see everyone for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Not 2020. But my immediate family--my parents and brothers and niece, I see them at least once every couple weeks, usually more more that.
Tom , a man who doesn't care for his family is worse than any & all animals and should not even be called a man !! I'm not old but I'm an old school guy, who is also a PROUD Irishman living in Britain, which can be almost as hard as being Black in America!!! I can't be good at my job, I have to be one of the BEST in my City, and I know it's still a 70% chance that I won't get the job BUT I will never stop being Proud & open to myself and my country 🇮🇪💚🇮🇪 Sorry for the rant there my friend and God Bless you and the UNDEFEATED P.IRA 🙏☘🇮🇪☘🙏
When Miquelle (I think I got the name right) was talking about how it might have been detrimental to her to know Dad was always there if she took a risk and failed, or something went wrong in life etc, I could see immense pride on Michael's face. In his mind he's giving himself a pat on the back - job well done. Because REAL men have an innate sense of provision and protection, and nothing could make a man prouder than to be known to his children as a fortress and place of safety, and the fixer of all things broken.
Of course guys shouldn't be leeching off women. But it's ridiculous to expect all men to be sole providers. 40+ years ago that's how it was but it's just not feasible for most people now. Most households require 2 incomes just to scrape by.
Michael as a dad myself I want 2 say it brings a smile 2 my face 2 see you with your beautiful daughters in this video! Godbless each and everyone of you including your sons and your wife.
Thank u very much 4 liking and replying 2 my comment. Id like 2 ask u a question Michael if I may. Alot of people ( professed Christians) even relatives claim that God speaks 2 them daily. That's not the case with me.
Feel like this was more a bonding moment for you and your family Mike answering those father/daughter questions. Been there Mike thanks for sharing these family moments!
He's right, with request of grace, good morals, and strengh of conviction its a beautiful thing, look after your Lady with grace and deep Love, that's a real Man 💪👌👍🌹
It’s always funny seeing New Yorkers interact with their Southern California children!!! I know like three (including Pastor Miles) and while they’re demeanors usually exude excitement and passion, their children usually seem to be melo and reserved! 🤣
@@Tengri_COD Yep. Strong people all of them. I didnt know about the Scythians though. I was under the impression they were gone when you guys first reached the middle east.
Your father know life and men and as he state unless he's your husband your dad is right on that point. He understands life and manhood. Thank you for sharing your experience many will learn from your experience. The young lady is young when the reality of life happens she will see. Michael is 2000%right and her older sisters as well. Listen to them they have life experience that is important. I enjoyed how real all of you are and your different honest responses.
I love your relationships with your daughters, they so remind me of mine .The conversations were truely funny of that they are still your little girls and as a mom I totally get it.
In every single way, you're just MARVELOUS, Mr Franzese! Brother have I gotten impressed. You are one of that truly rare people that once One realizes you're really that sensational, your mind is terminally gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Holy smokes Michael!! You have absolutely stunningly beautiful daughters! I would never be able to sleep at night having 5 daughters! 😂😂😂 Looks like you raised them very good Michael! You are a darned good father. I have kids myself, and this helped me alot. I'm sure Patrick will be breathing a sigh of relief after Dad said he likes him! 😂😂😂😂
All in all.. I know this life ain't about being cool, but man.. This ''daddy'' - this daddy is cool. So much respect for this man. The way he talks, listens, the posture, no fatigue, no backing down (self control within the man) ..and all of it more, just love it, just respect it. Greetings from Serbia.
My mom told my young nephew one time, “you can cry if you’re hurt or sad, but you’re not going to cry to get your way.” That was a strong moment.
mom would tell me stop your f****** crying or I'll give you something to cry about and she would also threaten that we will be taken away if we ever repeat anything that was said in the house mom raised on scare tactics
@George Thomas had to be an old Italian saying 😂
@@willseegers5098 my grand parents used to say that to me
That's old school discipline.
@London Boy I would have never thought that
"Get sick, get over it, get back to work." 🤣 Michael is a real man.
YES!

My biggest concern with this sit down is: THE PIZZA IS GETTING COLD.
I wonder if the pizza made it out of the sit down though..
Ha ha ha!
Right?
Why waste the pie? Why?
🤪
Thank you!
"my pizza Never hurt nobody" 😂
Nuke it in the microwave. The pizza is still good.
I remember when my ex girlfriend told me that she was angry to see that when I was in trouble, I did not show up emotions like I'm panicking. Next time, I will just say that I'm old school.
Yup
When you are in trouble it takes level-headed logic & reason to navigate your way through. Then afterwards, well, it's over, time to move on.
@@anonimushbosh I share affection, joy, tenderness. Never panic: that's my problem and nobody else's. By the way, we didn't break up for that reason.

So you're dating one of these lovely ladies and meet their Father, go home and watch "good fella's" and move to another State...
Or try to get into the witness protection program.
Wtf you think Mike is gonna say "Hey look that's me!"😂
Go under witness protection lol
Gonna get the papers...get the papers
Why, would you be skerd?
I agree with Michael 100% in this. A man should be able to provide for a woman and his children. Key word “able” to. Women have to bear children. That’s a full time job itself.
Having a good dad on whom you can depend is a blessing. Ask any orphan what they would do to get a dad like yours
As a Parent I can tell right away Michael is a GREAT father and did a wonderful job raising these girls. In a society where family seems to be more and more less of a priority I think that is an AMAZNG accomplishment! Bravo! 👍
Yes Amazing, 2 out of 3 expect a man to provide for them. Welcome to the 50s baby.
Millennial here and I completely agree with Michael. A man has an obligation and commitment to take care of their wife and kids and get his ass to work to make sure they're always taken care of.
That’s the way that I (22 year old female) was raised
She's appealing to his feminine God part within which given his history is understandable. I agree with her-kindness is not weak. But it get it.

You can tell Michael still has those mobster traits in him. 😎
You can take the man out the streets but you can’t take the streets out the man...life lesson
Those traits can make a person successful outside of crime. He’d probably make a better corporate executive than most of the ones I’ve worked with.
It is also a Biblical principal for a man to support His wife. Gods order for things.
@@jodykidp5396 right, the man head of the household. He earns tha money
I do think those traits go away
If you date one of his daughters and if it goes sideways, I would worry about their dad, but you should really worry about the brothers. That’s the Italian way.
Lmao tru
Madde Maxx he said his family is from Napoli
I love that the girls feel comfortable to ask you such questions in a public arena and not to be scared. Good job at unconditional love Dad!
Glad Mike found the love of Jesus and this not only brought him home to his father...but brought him home to his family.
Amen. You can see how Christ has transformed him, and is still transforming him.
My father told me that
"Romance without finance
becomes a nuisance" and
he was right!!
So true, my dad used to say "When the money runs out, love flies out the window"
Respect to your Dad man!💪🏻👍
I figured the money part myself
Love it.
Your father was right, a man earns and shares it with his immediate family! Romance will not pay the rent!
This makes me want to have a sit down with my kids like a Mobb Boss .
My Grandad did...and wasn’t one. Well, he was in his own way!
Call it a family meeting and then turn it into a sit down.
Michael, I am 61 and have three beautiful daughters myself. Kids bring such joy and its great that you can talk with your girls about things you did. You have a beautiful family and God has truly blessed you. You are a great example of Gods ability to help us all. Keep up all the hard work for our Savior.

Love this, what a wonderful father. The mix of his love for his daughters with his firm values and upbringing is fantastic.
My dad went into bankruptcy we had no money- they were taking away the house and his business and almost the vehicles and my mom never left my dads side even tho my dad the man didn’t have money to support the wife and kids- my mom helped my dad and my dad got outta the situation got into a different business and made money from that business and together they have been married almost 40 years.

And now I will cry, because it was real. Thank you Mr. Franzese!
Time to redefine manhood. His daughters are so sweet, insightful and adorable. Big hugs. It takes a lot for Dad to do this.

I had to leave this because the other 2 comments weren't deep enough you deserved this last one. If all the stars aligned and luck was on my side id have a chance to speak with you Mike. I have many things figured out well but my full potential has not been reached yet. Your curse became your blessing and that is beautiful. As is your family.
What a great beautiful family.
I can't believe how well spoken. You are very lucky Michael. Great show!
No holds barred. Your daughters don't hold back Michael. You were lucky to leave this sit down in one piece.... I would definitely want the best for my daughters too. Money is everything... When poverty came in the door... Love went out the window. .. Great channel Mike. 👍🙏👏
What a gentleman
, great father with such integrity. They’ll never know how good they have it until their kids are grown. These girls are blessed.
This guy is a good story teller,journalist ,communicator , interviewer etc. Definitely made to be in media.
I absolutely LOVE these family sit downs! I have three strong, accomplished sisters and the discussions we used to have were deep and revealing on many levels.
Mr Franzese has a refreshing, cleared-eyed view of masculinity and relationships. We need to hear more of this. God bless. Time for me to grab a slice.
Great openness in your family. God’s great mercy certainly came into your life in a big way.
7 children and 6 grandchildren, you really are a wealthy man Michael. Here's to many more good memories and hopefully many more grandchildren. Cheers.
I have five beautiful daughters as well Michael. Many blessings to you, your wife and lovely girls!
I love all of your YT videos but this one......hands down one of the BEST! I’m sure you are an amazing father and the “old school ways” should still be upheld to this day. Your daughters are very blessed to have you lookout for them. 💜 True family love.
Thought-provoking and heart-felt episode.
@@michaelfranzese My daughter has made many of the same comments your daughters made. I could relate!
The young one is showing her youth.
I remember being young and thinking love conquers all. But she doesn't understand that her perspective as a 22 year old isn't the right perspective. Michael and the older sisters were 100% right. If your partner can't support you if they needed too, they have nothing to offer you.
Haha exactly she is still learning ❤️
I learned it the hard way
You cant say she is wrong because she has a diffrent perspective. she is literally saying thats its ok to help a guy when he is sick just like a guy should help a women imagine telling you wife/girlfriend im sick with cancer or im sick and need surgery and she tells you to man up like c'mon telling men they should hold in all there feelings is very mentally unhealthy. this aint the 70s no more things change.
So with same logic from mans perspective, if she cant support herself what is the use of her?
@captain scentsible39 eh some people marry there highschool sweetheart and last a lifetime.
Handsome guy with a beautiful family! You could all star in your own mob movie. Glad you made it through the tough times to enjoy your family.
Thanks MIke, that's what life is all about, great program! I Thank God every day, that my daughter turned out to be a smart and beautiful God fearing young woman. Your Kids are great, good heads on their shoulders. God bless you and your family.
Enjoyed this sit down, some beautiful daughters Michael was blessed with
I like the old school ways ,my father never showed weakness so we looked at him and new we were safe at all times, he was our rock and I believe that’s what Michael means and that character takes time to mold. So you see these days how some of these “old school ways” are looked at but where are we as a society, I don’t know it seems I call it the “ participation award syndrome” seems discipline , respect, honor, learning loss, learning work ethic to win and win is different for everyone. I have my first child 4 months away and yes little girl, it’s amazing the changes in me and I want her to look at me like the strongest man ever I guess, I want her to look at me like I did my father perfectly said should be in position haha anyway I hope you realize that you guys taking the time to put all these messages out you never no when they change someone’s life so I would like to say thank you from the bottom of my heart you guys god bless 🙏
Couldn't agree more. If a man needs a "cry".....that's what his wife's shoulder is for.
I would have killed to have such a supportive Dad! I lost my Dad many years ago we clashed a lot but the last few years we were getting closer then he died. I still miss him.
LOL, Amanda is literally a clone of you in every way, and she is hilarious.
I have so much respect for you, Michael. You put your heart and soul into being a father and role model, and it shows through each of your gorgeous children. Your daughters are so blessed to have you and Cammy as their parents. Continued prayers for Amanda, you, and your entire family. May God always hold the Franzese family in the palm of his almighty hands. 🙏🏼
@@michaelfranzese Michael, I offer this to your daughters: I know I'm only an outsider looking in, but your father turned his world upside down to be with your mother. Your Dad wants each of you to have that kind of man in your life. You're father isn't talking smack, it's the example he lives. Each of you deserves a man who will adore and provide for you because he wants to. Please don't settle. Trust that the best is truly yet to come.
I completely agree that a man has to be self sufficient and provide but i am 60 and old school too but the school back then was so much better than today.
Role Model!
„A man who doesn’t care about his family is not a man!“
No big deal, but I'm pretty sure it's "A man who doesn't SPEND TIME with his family can never be a real man."
I've always loved that line, perhaps my favorite from GF Part 1. I don't know whether it makes you a "real man" or not, but I've always been of the belief that staying close with your family and spending time with your loved ones is incredibly important in life. Then again, I happen to have 2 great and loving parents, I get along with both my older brothers who are 7 and 9 years older than me respectively, and I love my niece and nephew and see them as often as I can, although my nephew is now a man himself and lives on his own so I don't see him quite as much (both are children to my brother who's 7-years older), and while all my grandparents passed away long ago, I really enjoy seeing the rest of my extended family and try to as often as I can. Unfortunately due to bastard ass Covid I haven't seen most of my aunts, uncles, or cousins in over a year. Not since Christmas 2019. Ordinarily I see all or most of them all the major holidays--Easter, then we get together for the 4th of July at my aunt and uncles lake house, then we have a couple joint birthday celebrations on each side of the family, then of course I see everyone for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Not 2020. But my immediate family--my parents and brothers and niece, I see them at least once every couple weeks, usually more more that.
Tom , a man who doesn't care for his family is worse than any & all animals and should not even be called a man !! I'm not old but I'm an old school guy, who is also a PROUD Irishman living in Britain, which can be almost as hard as being Black in America!!! I can't be good at my job, I have to be one of the BEST in my City, and I know it's still a 70% chance that I won't get the job BUT I will never stop being Proud & open to myself and my country 🇮🇪💚🇮🇪
Sorry for the rant there my friend and God Bless you and the UNDEFEATED P.IRA 🙏☘🇮🇪☘🙏
When Miquelle (I think I got the name right) was talking about how it might have been detrimental to her to know Dad was always there if she took a risk and failed, or something went wrong in life etc, I could see immense pride on Michael's face. In his mind he's giving himself a pat on the back - job well done. Because REAL men have an innate sense of provision and protection, and nothing could make a man prouder than to be known to his children as a fortress and place of safety, and the fixer of all things broken.
I admire you guys being vulnerable and asking questions out of your comfort zone. Very sincere and honest.
Have a great weekend, Mr. Franzese!
Everyone afraid to mention how beautiful his daughters are because we are all afraid to get whacked 😂
🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤡🤡🤡
Italians man. The mens have great hairlines and genes. Good genes for the women too look at stallones family too
Nope , his girls are beautiful inside and out. Lucky Dad
You just outed yourself. 😆
Franzeze wasn't a shooter so we good
Michael just seems like a terrific dad, he knows things that happened in the past was because he was in the "life". Nice family and smashing fella.
Nothing chauvinistic about saying a man needs to be able to support his family, this is just a fact.
Of course guys shouldn't be leeching off women. But it's ridiculous to expect all men to be sole providers. 40+ years ago that's how it was but it's just not feasible for most people now. Most households require 2 incomes just to scrape by.
I think he means, a real man will go to any lengths to take care of his family. I make him right.
Good luck being the sole provider in today's world.
What real man cares about silly year 2000s norms as chauvinistic?
sadly no, in todays world it seems to be hate speech lol.
Miquelle is 35?! She looks 20. Must be her amazing genes. She’s gorgeous
Smokin hot 🔥
@Hawg Hathword 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The mom is almost 60 but looks like 42.
Michael as a dad myself I want 2 say it brings a smile 2 my face 2 see you with your beautiful daughters in this video! Godbless each and everyone of you including your sons and your wife.
Thank u very much 4 liking and replying 2 my comment. Id like 2 ask u a question Michael if I may. Alot of people ( professed Christians) even relatives claim that God speaks 2 them daily. That's not the case with me.
Feel like this was more a bonding moment for you and your family Mike answering those father/daughter questions. Been there Mike thanks for sharing these family moments!
He's right, with request of grace, good morals, and strengh of conviction its a beautiful thing, look after your Lady with grace and deep Love, that's a real Man 💪👌👍🌹
It’s always funny seeing New Yorkers interact with their Southern California children!!! I know like three (including Pastor Miles) and while they’re demeanors usually exude excitement and passion, their children usually seem to be melo and reserved! 🤣
I love how you’ve raised your kids. They are very blessed. I like what you’ve taught them.
Beautiful Family, Love from Turkey
Whats up neighbour? Lovely family indeed. I love your name btw. You know your peoples history alright.
@@nikosgreek352 Ofcourse i do know my history. My Greek neighbour 😉 Scythians/Saka's , Huns/Xiongnu, Gokturks, etc....
@@Tengri_COD Yep. Strong people all of them. I didnt know about the Scythians though. I was under the impression they were gone when you guys first reached the middle east.
Your father know life and men and as he state unless he's your husband your dad is right on that point.
He understands life and manhood.
Thank you for sharing your experience many will learn from your experience.
The young lady is young when the reality of life happens she will see. Michael is 2000%right and her older sisters as well. Listen to them they have life experience that is important.
I enjoyed how real all of you are and your different honest responses.
I love your relationships with your daughters, they so remind me of mine .The conversations were truely funny of that they are still your little girls and as a mom I totally get it.
Michael, this was a very cool video watching you interact with your daughters. It made me smile watching a very proud dad.
Julia is absolutely stunning! Your going to have some trouble there mr franzese!!!
Lol no he won’t !
Lol just imaging someone finding another Slices chain that’s not his and before he shoots him he goes “ Michael franzese sends his regards”
Don Franzese sends his regards
Hahaha epic
It’s a Neapolitan message..
There's one in my town. Slices in Saugerties NY
@@kev0lution time to get the gun
In every single way, you're just MARVELOUS, Mr Franzese! Brother have I gotten impressed.
You are one of that truly rare people that once One realizes you're really that sensational, your mind is terminally gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lol this is so funny. I totally understand your Dad's feelings about men taking care of women. And I am a woman close to 60yrs old. Love this....
I also like how the family has a sense of humor I like it
You’re a blessed man with a wonderful family Michael!
Intro was priceless!
@@michaelfranzese do a sit down with your Sons
@@nikeelite5969 he says in the video his sons are a bit camera shy
@@michaelfranzese I've got a question,are all of your daughters married or dating italian guys,or does M.F. give a damn what they look like?
Great episode Mr Mike, so much love an compassion for each other! Beautiful daughters (Up most respect) Your a true role model! Much love! 🙏🏻
Mr Franzese talking about pizza, most Italian-american video on youtube
🤣
Holy smokes Michael!! You have absolutely stunningly beautiful daughters! I would never be able to sleep at night having 5 daughters! 😂😂😂 Looks like you raised them very good Michael! You are a darned good father. I have kids myself, and this helped me alot.
I'm sure Patrick will be breathing a sigh of relief after Dad said he likes him! 😂😂😂😂
I love the Franzese family. I really do.
@@michaelfranzese you’re welcome!
Lovely Family indeed! It's always great to be with our children like this.
This episode made me laugh so hard all the way through, great job, beautiful family! Love the channel!
"i have two sons, one is gonna run the restaurant the other is doing some stuff for me ...!" 🔫😲😲
He is getting some work done.
The world needs more men like Michael! 100% agree
The way Michael answers some questions with questions is just amazing
I love it. You are an amazing dad. Real compassion for your kids. Great video. Kept me smiling while listening to you all.
Michael, I’m old school like you, I’m 61 and was raised that way.
I'll never call myself "old fashion" ever again.
Lol! He's going light on them if you want to know old fashioned.
Again, you have such a beautiful family…. Your so lucky and blessed ❤
All in all.. I know this life ain't about being cool, but man.. This ''daddy'' - this daddy is cool. So much respect for this man. The way he talks, listens, the posture, no fatigue, no backing down (self control within the man) ..and all of it more, just love it, just respect it. Greetings from Serbia.
That was awesome, great to see you guys having a good time...
Lol no one's good enough for daddy's lil girl
