As a busy actor and dad to daughterWilder Frances, 4, sonsRocco, 6, and Kobe, 17, twins Dade and Kaya, 20, and son Sean, 23,Donald Faisoncertainly has his hands full.
But theEmergencestar admits he isn’t the master of doling out punishments when it comes to his six children — so much, in fact, that he has a specific nickname for himself that describes both his best and worst parental quality.
“I’m Disney Dad. I’m the one that you can count on for the laughs and the fun times,” says Faison, 45, in a new interview with PEOPLE’sCeleb Parents Get Real.
“I think that’s a horrible quality to have, as well,” he adds. “It’s rare that I discipline.”
“As my kids have gotten older, I’ve become … not more opinionated, but I feel like I’ve had to use my experiences in life to explain to them why what they’re doing isn’t going to work,” Faison continues. “But as far as being strict, no. And that’s good and bad.”
TheScrubsalum goes on to reveal that his proudest moment as a dad has been seeing his older children off to pursue higher education, sharing, “I have a kid that graduated college.”
“I’m very proud of that. And I have anotherkid that’s gonna start collegenext year,” the actor raves. “That makes me very proud.”
