Tommy Rico the Boston Baby Daddy is a surly and cranky wise-cracker with a soft spot for his family from the streets of Massachusetts. He thinks he's the best father and husband any woman could ask for - actual results may vary. He grew up among thugs and bullies, but promises not to let his adorable son become one. He's loud, proud, and doesn't back down from a fight, (unless it's with his wife, a smart and successful attorney). Though he once solved his problems with fists and fury, he's teaching his son empathy and kindness while also learning those lessons himself at the same time. For those who may doubt his parenting abilities based on his look or his attitude, to that Tommy would say: #GoFatherYourself.
