Agreed. Guys like Gotti and Basciano certainly did nothing to protect their children from the life they lived. Why would anybody want to expose their children to a life of treachery, constant lies and always having to look over your shoulder? It actually disgusts me.
Despite what it may seem and wht you hear I know for a fact vinny never wanted any of his kids around the life at all, and that's the truth.. But like other people have said once they didn't listen and were still in the streets doing shit he figured it was better to keep them close to him if they weren't going to listen and get involved in the shit.. Now its obviously out of his hands. He's in supermax for fucks sake.. I'm sure he's not very happy with his kids current situation.. But what can he do about it now? If they weren't going to listen to him when he was around he sure as hell isn't going to get the point across when he's serving life.
