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
Listen to your Dad girls. I have been married 40 years. We raised 4 sons. He always worked. He always hustled. Time were not easy and we struggled financially but he always worked. I was able to stay home so our children could have a mother available all the time and take care of the household. Once they were all older and in school I was able to start working. Hard time happen, the important thing is (when Dad says you need a man to be a man) is that he still takes care of the family.
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 love the honesty of these sit-downs. His daughters know him like the back of their hand. I'll say this much; he's one kick-ass father; it's crystal clear how deeply he loves his gals, and that's fantastic. So similar yet oceans apart.
I was cracking up when you were talking about a man being able to support a family Michael I agree with you a 100% my wife doesn't work by choice we made a decision she stays home with the kids and takes care of the house and she was successful before we got married we are born again Christians trying to live biblically love seeing you together with your daughters can tell your a great dad God Bless keep making more great videos!!!
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 😂😂😂
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.
Your daughters are all amazing. The fact that they want to sit there and be there with you on camera shows how much they love you and how successful of a father you are.
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! ❤️🙏
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! 👍
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.
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.
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
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*
Michael, even though I'm a Muslim and you're a christian, it is refreshing to hear business/life coaches talking about God and faith, family values. I've listened to far too many people in this field and religion barely ever comes up. It's why i enjoy listening to you. God & family are the two most important things always for me.
Your daft evolution is manmade Dont lie you just want to live in sin without feeling guilt The lord jesus christ said in the bible that satan is god of this world so ofcourse satan would have a lot of fake religions including your favourite belief evolution Trusting your satanic goverment idolising people The signs and symbols of the occult are everywhere watch this A call for an uprising Good fight ministries Odd tv Stranger than fiction Shaking my head production Just last month wwe had a album cover called 666 And there is a spastic demon called marilyn Manson who has burnt a bible But I know what ever I tell you you wont care or answer me back because most dont I'm sorry for being rude I'm sick of telling people the same stuff The worst thing that can happen to a person is when they are taking their last breaths and think can I be wrong
@@mikk3150 yup and them other reasons are also made by the same elites who create all kinds of shit for us to hate eachother. - religion - politics - personal preference they re all ingredients made by them for us to hate eachother. wake up kid.
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.
Doesn't matter what a man has done in his past, when you can raise your family, provide food, a roof, and act with respect and get respect from your family. you have done a great job, in life,. Much respect from the uk
I love the Francese Family. I always have looked up to certain male figures for Guidance. I consider Michael Franzese my RU-vid Father. Thanks Michael for the guidance which has helped my life alot. I also have completely changed my lifestyle as well. Its a wonderful blessing that you must have gone through to really understand completely. Many blessings 🙏 to all of you!
@@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.
Michael is not "old school", he is just a real man. He is 100% right and is doing his daughters a great service in educating them in what to expect in a man. Mr Franzese I salute you.
100% on Michael’s take on men being men!👍🏼 My Sicilian dad, a man’s man and while I was a career girl who did it on my own with never ending emotional support from my dad I knew he would always be my safety net. Ladies you are incredibly fortunate to have this wonderful man as your dad.
That’ll be like a ‘God father’ feeling moment, hmm with a suit a cup of wine and the daughters bf sitting across from him with dim lights and 2 of his guys stand right behind him 😳
This is a great inside look into the actual family of a made man. Love the idea of this and hearing a kid’s perspective who didn’t go into the business.
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.
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.
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.
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...
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.
Bottom line, Michael is a phenomenal business man and brilliant, and no matter what path he had chosen he would have been at the top of that profession.
This is my favourite Franzese video , no one can chat to him how his children does so the perspectives and answers are so interesting , they push each others understandings . Need part 3,4,5,6,7 - 10000000‼️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
These videos really help me get through the day, when im getting panic attacks. Im in a unfamiler state and dont have any friends or family so having mikes stories make me feel like i have somebody here with me. Really appriciate it
Michael I love the message you are trying to send. Also, opening your family up to viewers adds such a personal and important touch. When most people think of “the life”, they seldom focus on the unsung broken families left behind. Congratulations on the success you’ve had on keeping your family together, and keep fighting the good fight! God bless.
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.
It is so awesome that you are so close with your kids. Also I love that you have turned you life around from the bad decisions you made and now and add alot of great things to society. You have a beautiful family. God bless them all.
This is the most dangerous sit down in Michael's life. Remember, this man was a Caporegime who ran a crew of 300 men in Brooklyn in the 1980s and he was threatened by Carmine Persico, John Gotti and Paul Castellano, but a sit down with his daughters, forget about it.
I'm glad you have a great family !! The Lord really blessed your life. Your change & transformation in your life really shows. It's an inspiration to me.
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.
Michael is right, he comes from a generation that knows his role in life, even if he made mistakes in life, he learned from every mistake, trying to teach his daughters a better direction in life.
A man in the relationship is responsable to lead the family toward the right path. Financial stability or for the man to be a go getter comes with the package. A man to just sit around and do nothing shows no interest in the success of the family. Great sit down guys!!
Brilliant! You took a life of the Mafia, and turned it into a marketing tool, to a life of selling pizza and starting a franchise. Absolutely brilliant!!! 😊
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.
Wonderful sit down with Michael's lovely daughters. Michael reminds me of my dad, who was an awesome dad too, but no longer with us, in a lot of ways. I agree with him on basically everything, but I'm 55, so some of it is a generational thing. It's a lot better having a dad that keeps an eye on you as opposed to someone who doesn't notice whether you home or not. When you're dating, you're trying to make a bond with someone that is going to have to weather a lot of crap being thrown at you if you end up getting married. Both people should be trying to make a good impression on the other person. If the guy is lazy when you're dating, that's only going to get worse during a marriage. Parents intuitively know this.
Everyone scared of dating one of these lovely’s because of Mr.Franzese; the real fear should be from you getting caught up in between all 5 gals like he is here😂🤣
He is at a big disadvantage, I was the only guy in the house with woman, no man scares me, but a little woman scares the shit out of me lolll that's crazy
This is outstanding!! I was never into “the life” but I did defeat a devastating H & pills addiction that I lost my wife to but thank gawd I kept my daughters. My daughters and our time together is EVERYTHING to me...it’s so amazing to see that no matter where a man goes in life, we all eventually end up at home where things really matter.
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.
Micheal is an old school man I like that , those are the values I grew up on to. The only time I show emotions or anything like that is when I’m testing these women to see if there real to me & my process other then that Na we live on old school values simple as 💯💯💯.
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.
