For Dennis Trillo, Jennylyn Mercado's tough love is important in raising their kids.
The “Good Cop, Bad Cop” dynamics among parents is a common approach in raising children. And it seems that this is the parenting style of celebrity couple Dennis Trillo and Jennylyn Mercado.
The Pulang Araw actor was thankful that his wife is good at giving tough love to their kids, especially their youngest, three-year-old Dylan.
“Siguro yung ability niya sa pagdidisiplina,” Dennis answered when asked what he admires about Jennylyn as a mom.
The entertainment media, including GMANetwork.com interviewed the actor during the launch of his new endorsement, Zero Filter Sunscreen by Belle Dolls, on Thursday, May 8.
He continued, “Kasi ako, yung ang weakness ko at yun naman ang strength niya. Kaya niyang magbigay ng tough love, e. Kaya niyang tiisin ang mga iyak ng bata. Ako, medyo malambot ang puso ko sa mga ganun.
“Kaya doon ako bilib sa kanya, na kaya niyang gawin yung sa mga anak namin. Naniniwala ako na isa yung sa mga key para maging mabuting bata ang mga anak namin.”

Meanwhile, Dennis said he and Jennylyn have become more focused as parents since Dylan was born. He admitted that both of them were inexperienced when they had their first kids.
Dennis has a teenage son named Calix Andreas with his ex-girlfriend, Carlene Aguilar. Likewise, Jennlyn has a teenage son named Alex Jazz with her ex-boyfriend Patrick Garcia.
The Green Bones actor said, “Siguro ang pinakanatutuhan ko habang inaalagaan ang aming bunso, dito talaga yung time na nakatutok kami ng asawa ko. Nakatutok kami every step of the way. Talagang nakatutok kami dahil, kumbaga, doon sa mga nauna naming mga anak, dito namin naibubuhos.
“Siyempre, noong time na nagkaroon kami ng mga anak, medyo nangangapa-ngapa kasi mga bata pa kami. Pero lahat ng experiences namin doon, nai-correct namin. Siguro, naging mas magaling kaming parents ngayon dahil sa mga bagay na yun.”
Dennis was also thankful that their sons are very protective of their baby sister.
“Tuwang-tuwa ako sa kanila, sa mga lalaki namin, dahil first time naming nagkaroon ng isang bunso 'tapos babae pa. Kumbaga, napaka-thankful ako na mayroon siyang mga kuya na laging nagbabantay sa kanya, nakasuporta, at tagapagtanggol niya paglaki niya.”
Dennis and Jennylyn got married in a civil ceremony in November 2021.
