Marcello Antonio59 years old, lives in Portugal. According to him, three of his five children are already working.

The eldest, Francisco, 21 years old, linked to Mônica Torres, is an assistant cook. Lucas, 23, and Louis, 19, both stepchildren, work in house cleaning services and walk dogs.

“All my children work. I have never forced them to do anything. Here in Portugal they are worth money. It is worth one euro. Francisco works as an assistant chef in a restaurant in Lisbon. He earns 850 euros [algo em torno de R$ 4,926], which here is a minimum wage. I help him with the rent, and with this money he earns, he pays the bills for water, electricity, gas, and he has money left to live on”, said Marcello Antony, who appeared on Leda Nagle’s YouTube channel.

Then he talked about his stepchildren, Lucas and Louis, sons of Carolina Hollinger Villar, but whom he considers children due to their cohabitation. The actor has been married to the businesswoman since 2011. “Lucas, my stepson and my son, cleans American houses. He earns 80 euros per cleaning, or about R$ 480. Louis, my other stepson, takes for walks foreigners’ dogs. Earn €40 euros”, continued the actor.

Some weeks ago, Marcellus He started working as a luxury real estate agent. For the actor, his new career and the work of his children demonstrate that the mentality of work in Europe is different.

“These are things that they [meus filhos] they wouldn’t do it in Brazil. Francisco would never be a kitchen assistant in Brazil. The mentality here in Europe is different. This creates a shell over them. They are sure that they will not clean forever, nor will they be kitchen helpers forever. Francisco told me: ‘Dad, I want to stay as a kitchen helper for a year and a half, because I want to save money and take the best gastronomy course here in Europe. I want to be a chef.’ And Lucas and Louis are looking for a place to live in the Netherlands. They want to start there as couriers, delivering food by bicycle, because they earn a lot there. I say this from a mentality point of view, of how they are approaching life, which is something I didn’t have at my age. They face life as it is: they will be insulted by their boss, they will be ignored, they will be discriminated against. The tendency of parents is to always say ‘yes’, and life itself will tell them ‘no’, and they must be prepared.”

In addition to Francisco, Lucas and Louis, Marcello is also the father of Lorenzo, 12, and Stephanie, 24. Both Francisco and Stephanie are adopted.
