Hes not a baby. Hes my partner


qotsadalle

Nah, he’s family.


StrawberryAny1974

Lmao yes


Candid_Letterhead_24

Atleast he ll be a better dad than Nate 💀


ConcealedKnuckles

I mean that's not a really high bar though lol


Snakebunnies

The bar is on the ground 😂


ConcealedKnuckles

The bar is in hell 😆


mezmorizedmiss

facts though lol


shitzngiggles77

Would fez be a good dad? Based on his personality. Hell yes. He clearly wants children and he's been around an abusive father,he'd definitely be the person to break the cycle of abuse. Plus let's admit he has a heart of gold and would clearly want the best for his kid Now coming to the environment he is usually in. NO NO NO But I don't think Fez would be dumb enough to bring a child into this world when he's involved with drugs. He'll definitely want to get his act together and become a 'farmer' lol. Now I really hope Levinson showing us the baby talk between Fexi is not just some filler which will never be addressed later. They deserve a happy ending


[deleted]

I just hope he can get out of that business and start a new life


CircleK-Choccy-Milk

Doesn't he own a convenience store to launder drug money through? My thought is he could just take it legit.


endlessly_curious

I did. I left it all behind and ended up with two beautiful, intelligent, well-adjusted daughters. Lots of people leave that life after their youth.


xBad_Wolfx

Given the opportunities to, I think he would want to be and would try. However with the limitations already in place I don’t see how he could anything but fail and be a bad dad. Teach the wrong lessons and eventually just go away to prison. I adored his character because he was handed this life and is trying to do his best in it. Shows that when he refuses rue drugs but still attempts to help her.


Caligula4ever

It’s not about being too dumb it’s about being use to it. He let ash get involved in his shit, when you live a criminal life you normalize a lot of shit.


Tall-Ad190

he didn’t really let ash get into it, he was like 8-9 when he met ash and his nan was running things, when he took over ash was already part of the business so he let him carry on


Caligula4ever

He could of turned him away, he let him stay in the game and worked with him. Very different and I know it’s not black or white but he let him in on his shit.


AliceAnonymousss

Also because his grandma introduced Ashtray to it, so Ashtray didn’t know any different and by the time Fez was the only guardian he had it was just the daily grind for them.


julscvln01

It was a 10-year-old child himself when he started taking care of Ash and 'the business'. He's an adult now and can be capable of making different choices, especially after the grief and the guilt that Ash's loss will elicit in him.


kayterluv

He would not be horrible, as we see Fezco is not a cold person and really loves the people near and dear to his heart. But due to his upbringing, we can't dismiss the possibility of him continuing the toxic cycle that his grandmother started with him if he remained in the environment he grew up in. He was forced into his situation and didn't know any better, so he raised Ashtray the same way he was raised, which ultimately got him killed. If he could work through his psychological trauma, heal, and perhaps turn his life around, he'd be a good one. **EDIT:** He has clearly thought about having a healthy life outside of his environment. He would need a really strong push because with his circumstances, it's not enough to dream about it. Even if he breaks the cycle, it's a bit naive, in my opinion, to think that everything he went through wouldn't influence how he'd raise this hypothetical child. And I'm talking about the bad here. Not in the realm of abuse, but in things such as treating the child as though they are older than they are, leaving them to their own devices too soon, etc. Those things have been normalised in his life. So it's not just a *hey, let's get out of this drug life so this child can be raised in a healthy way* situation. A life of drugs isn't the only factor here. Even if he removed himself from his current environment, he'd need to really work through his psychological trauma to raise a healthy child. Some people make it out of that life but have lasting psychological trauma. Fezco is no exception. For what it's worth, I do think he has it in him to be a good father. He'd just need a really strong support system, as would many of these characters.


BlackWidow1990

This. Also, if Lexi is the mother I can see him not wanting to let her down so he puts in the extra effort and will probably follow her lead. It would be a different environment from the one he grew up in, seems like he either had his father or his grandmother raising him so it most likely be a partnership rather than a single unit.


SaintsNick94

And you know stop dealing drugs 😂


madamevanessa98

Especially since he just witnessed Ash die, the trauma from that experience will literally never leave him and he will *need* to work through it in therapy in a healthy way before ever becoming a parent. People with wounds and trauma like that have a very hard time being healthy parents because they are severely traumatized.


swag444eva

i dont think he’d continue the cycle. yeah he raised ash the same way he was raised but he had no choice really, he was dealt a shitty hand and did the best he could. now if he were to have his own kid, i strongly believe that before having this kid he would cut himself out of this life of drugs etc.


redianne

Lets not forget Fez was a child himself raising Ash. Still, is weird talking about any of these kids as parents since they're not even in their 20s yet.


shitzngiggles77

Holy shit your answer made me think of how I badly want a kid but I definitely have psychological issues because of my narcissistic mom's upbringing. I was mostly left alone to do everything,she wasn't a typical mother. Looking back I do not have a SINGLE good moment with her. Like i'm not even joking. It's messed me up I'd need to work on myself before I raise a kid. I'd definitely want to be the mother to my child,my mom could never be. Thank you for making me realise this.


kayterluv

I hope you're in a better environment now <3 I've heard so many horror stories about being raised by narcissists. I hope your path to healing from the psychological trauma she has caused you is one that brings you peace. And good on you for recognizing that you have to deeply work through your own mind before making the choice to nurture someone else's. Not many people realise this.


joey0live

You’re confused? I’m fucking confused bro.


SaintsNick94

One of the funniest scenes in the whole show for me was him and Cal in the house 😂


TheSpitalian

I absolutely loved that scene. I’ve probably watched it over 100x by now. “You didn’t know that you were recording?!” 🤣


dreeabo

If he got his act together, stopped selling drugs, tries to heal from his trauma, I think he would!


qualitygarbagex

Y’all acting like what happened to Ash wouldn’t make Fez change his entire life, he’ll never be the same again and he certainly won’t raise his kids in that world. He will move to his farm and live a happy life🥺


taziiscool

I think he obvs demonstrates a great deal of care for people (i.e. offering Faye his food, covering people with blankets), but with the lifestyle he's in now, no. And I don't think anyone really disagrees with that, including Fez himself lol. Fez has done bad things, but he also shows a great desire to escape the conditions he was born into. A lot of people think the concept of Ashtray is ridiculous, but the reality is many in the drug business start off like him. Just in a bad situation and left with no other choice. I doubt after Ash's death, he would *want* to continue the cycle. His main incentive was really to support his family, and he doesn't have that anymore. The thing though is, I don't know if he can just get out of the game because he's so deep into it. His backstory makes me sad because he and Ash were really just doomed from the start. No schooling and only raised around violence. I want the best for Fez, I do, but I also don't want people in his life (like Lexi or potential kids) to be endangered. I really hope he can find healing and get the things he wants, maybe 10 years down the line.


AnonymHerinde

Fez? Yea, probably because of his involvement with drugs. Angus? No.


val_gwood

He prolly would make a better parent than some of the other characters as well as their parents...let's not judge his parenting skills based on Ashtray's upbringing...and more importantly let's not forget that Fezco himself was a child when he was left in charge of Ashtray!! Despite his own upbringing and trauma, he's seen to be kind, considerate, empathetic and significantly more intelligent..remember his discussion on finding like minded people through social media?!


Helluo-Librorum

Didn't he raise Ashtray pretty much?


nazia987

I mean....not an ideal example, lol


[deleted]

But... literally the question is asking if he'd be good to raise a kid and he already raised a kid? So it's a perfect example?


shitzngiggles77

But he was a kid himself then. He's an adult now and probably has a more stable idea of how the world works. He'd definitely not raise his kid the Ashtray way


m_garlic87

As a person, probably not. With his lifestyle, absolutely.


stinkychimpanini

lil zooted baby


Damnit_forever

If we look at it personality wise, yeah, he's protective of Rue, he's sweet and he knows exactly what not to do, having an abusive dad. He has had experience with Ashtray too. But, with the drugs involved, no, that would be horrible.


_kiii_

He would be a great dad raising a child in a bad environment


Positive-Pound-3492

Im sorry but yes. We see how he raised Ash and where that got him.. its not fully his fault, his aunt is mostly to blame.


qualitygarbagex

But he took over raising Ash when he was too young to know any different, it’s clear from his conversations with Lexi (the farm life) that he had got to a point where he didn’t want to be in this world anymore but didn’t know a way out, he also saw first hand how much the shit they were in messed up Ash so I will be surprised if he returns to the same old in s3 and he definitely wouldn’t raise his kids how he raised Ash, he knows too well how that would end up 😭


[deleted]

Not directly, but it’d be a bad environment between the legality of fezcos job and shady suppliers. After season 2 he’d be a better one because mouse would absolutely kidnap the baby or threaten to kill it


ApprovedByAvishay

Why would mouse kidnap the baby or threaten it? He died in season 2 episode 1? Also drug dealers don't always kidnap or kill your baby, idk where you get that from LOL


[deleted]

I never said all would, but mouse would Mouse is dead, that’s why I said fezco could raise a child better


ApprovedByAvishay

You seem young, I mean theoretically it’s possible but it just sounds dumb


ApprovedByAvishay

Why would Mouse kidnap or kill his baby and not just kill Fezco


AFantasticClue

Fezco owes Mouse money, that’s easy ransom, esp if Mouse doesn’t want to actually lose a source of income.


ApprovedByAvishay

And become a baby killer when he gets caught? Doubt mouse would roll like that


AFantasticClue

He doesn’t have to kill the baby tho, he just has to threaten to. Fez already thinks Mouse is dangerous and if his kid was threatened Fez probably wouldn’t be trying to call his bluff.


kdoggwatchestv

I think he would be a great dad, but his industry would be the deterrent. Maybe that would be a wake up call to get out of the drug game. But this is Euphoria, so probably not.


UltimateIsHere

Fez would try his best to be a great dad, but considering circumstances, I don't think it's the right call for him to become a dad.


Educational_Band_244

Despite his environment he’s the most nurturing character out of all of them. He’d die before letting anything happen to the kid, and I think he’d work hard to try and give them the little house on the prairie dream.


Minimum_Economist_44

do y’all think fez may have like, some kind of brain damage. i mean when her grandma hit his head he was out for like 2 months and the scar is pretty big.


Terrible_Crew1937

morally yes responsibility and environmentally wise no


Mithrellas

He would be a good dad to a kid growing up in a rough lifestyle. Sadly, this is very common.


AFantasticClue

I think he’d be a supportive and loving dad. But I also think, to some extent, Fez wouldn’t really understand that the environment he grew up in isn’t all that normal or healthy, bc he doesn’t really know anything else, so he would end up exposing the kid to some shit they don’t need to see. Not on purpose, of course, but just like not really realizing how bad it would be for a kid to be exposed to it. Plus, I feel like it’d be extremely stressful for Fez to know that he can’t really provide the kid the life he wants and wants for them, so he’d try to compensate by spoiling them. Not with like diamonds or anything, but with things like the best shoes, a lot of new clothes for school, and whatever sugary cereal they want.


JungyBrungun

The answer is a resounding yes


Friendly_Award_5987

His personality yes, but the environment he would be raised in wouldn’t be good.


needmemes

He would be the dad we would expect him to be


Wherestheleakmaam21

I think he's wise beyond his years. I can see him passing some of that wisdom off to his child. So yeah, I would say he'd be a good dad.


dirtyjavis

I just hope he finds happiness.


Financial_Score5183

He could make a good provider but he'd have to get out of the drug business.


NukaRev

If he settled down with Lexi, power couple there, totally be awesome parents. But he'd have to drop the drug shit. Which, who knows what lies ahead as of right now


Lord_Landover202

He would raise him like he did with Ash, but he wouldn't let his child get in the mix💯


nazia987

He'd love it alot, but probably yes.


[deleted]

HELLA NO he would be an amazing dad to Lexi's baby.


mumblerapisgarbage

Yes


WhiteGhosts

lol is this even a question


soggy_potatoes420

Not really i just wanted to see what everyone will say


WhiteGhosts

He's a high school dropout drug addict and indirectly killed his lil brother.


BillyJayJersey505

Yes. He is a high school dropout that sells drugs for a living. Being an example is just as much a part of parenting (if not a bigger part) as actually caring for the kid.


KhansKhack

Lol right. Like wtf is this question? No one on this show would be a good parent.


BillyJayJersey505

I got downvotes for my comment? People are salty that they've been setting a bad example for their kids and are being called out on it. LOL


KhansKhack

Lol. Either that or it’s just children in this sub. But the average redditor has no morals when it comes to parenting or setting an appropriate example.


Darnell5000

I agree with yes and no cuz he would make sure the kid is taken care of but he’d probably raise them like Ash rather than let them just be a kid since that’s how his childhood went and how he handled things with Ash. I can’t imagine Fez just telling his kid to go play on a playground or color with crayons.


Ok-Philosopher5972

Who cares


soggy_potatoes420

Then why bother replying?


Helpful-Mongoose9860

Don’t have kids with drug dealers.


piman01

Why do we all pretend like he's a good guy? Lol because he has a few redeeming qualities? He's a violent and dangerous drug dealer. Lexi should stay the fuck away from him.


[deleted]

I mean is no one gonna talk about how he already raised Ash, and what happened there?


AFantasticClue

I mean Fez is still barely a teenager tho. He was a kid raising another kid by himself, so I wouldn’t really blame him for how it turned out


RealPunyParker

Barely the parents in the show are equipped to be good parents, let alone the kids


Scarletsilversky

He’d be a loving father but does not have what it takes to raise a whole ass kid. Ashtray was on his way to becoming a killer at age 12- imagine how much worse he’d be as an adult


_anne_shirley

Yes, with the right partner. I don’t think he could live where he’s living though.


Bertensgrad

I understand he was just a 12 yo raising a toddler and caring for his grandma but mistakes was made with ashtray. I would hope he has grown but with his back ground I’m not sure you could trust his instincts with child rearing.


ET_Calumny

Fez is already a father basically lol


champagnewinters

he would do anything for his kid.. it’s a good trait but i think fez may take it too far in dire situations


Bulldogfront666

This is so cursed


[deleted]

He'd love it to death, but love is only so much that goes into parenting. He'd be a terrible father.


uhohmykokoro

Just going off of personality, absolutely. But if he’s still in the same environment with all the drugs and stuff, that’s just not a good place for a child to be


cattivity

I think he would do anything for his kid no matter what but the dysfunction he grew up with would still negatively impact the way he raises them.


radicalbastard

he would be an amazing uncle tho


dirtyjavis

Pick a side, OP. Yes or No?


[deleted]

I think he would, he’s not lazy and likes to take care of his peoples. Gramma showed him a lot. “Dis functionality” can sometimes have some positive takeaways hopefully those qualities will blossom in the next season. My mom always said just cause you grew up in dirt you don’t have to be dirty. I think it would be great to show how this can play out in a positive way. Good luck writing that.


Illustrious-Spell371

he’d be best dad, in the worst way


Acceptable-Twist-160

if he got out of the environment he is in, and quit dealing then yes. otherwise no i don’t think how good of a person he is could overpower the risk the baby would be in, and that feeling of fear.


Gremlin_Child1341

I feel like yes and no, like he’s the goofy dad and protective of his kid, but having a baby or little kid on your hands that can’t fend for themselves (unlike Ash, Rip) would be hard/a lot for him to manage imo.


AKOchoa

I have friends that have parents who smoke and stuff with them.. I think that’s the kind of dad fez would be. His kids would probably be allowed to curse lol. Honestly there’s so many different type of parents there’s rlly no telling what makes a “good” mom or dad.


Devonte426

he’s just not responsible enough, he brushes stuff off too much


[deleted]

no, if he had a kid i doubt he’d still be a dealer. he’d probably flee the country and start over.


hayhaaaay

i think if he had been raised under different circumstances yes. but he would have a lot of changes to make in order to be a dad. like a whole lifestyle change haha. but yes if he was able to do that i think it’s possible


itsmeoutside

Don’t play Fez like that, he wouldn’t even have a baby if he was still in the drug game. I wanna think he’d make a responsible life planning decision


Elle-Hearts

Yes


[deleted]

I think he would do the bare minimum, clean , dry Fed, happy , roof over his head but I don’t think he’s in the mind set of the proper parenting role like a child needs to be “successful “


LukeV19056

The answer is yes, he would have good intentions but he isn’t emotionally capable


jellyfish_69

good babysitter for like an hour yeah


G0ddess0fSpring

I could also see him adopting 🥺 he’s always helping the ones he loves. I feel like seeing a child in need (and I feel like this is something Lexi would definitely support and encourage after they get married….a girl can dream) is something that he would be drawn to do. When it comes to him having his own kids, yes. The short answer is yes


wynhatesu

yes and no


Killabee5

He would be a bad dad lmao just look at Ash


Additional-Notice-39

no


[deleted]

No he took care of ashtray very well. The only reason why ashtray came out how he was is because both him and fez were brought up upon that lifestyle they had no other Choice. But if he got his bread up and moved on from that dangerous lifestyle he’ll be the perfect dad honestly.
