***“You know children make their own choices despite how they were brought up.” Francisco - Ursula VanPelt***

Francisco is a powerless-wizard and maintained a career as a high school math teacher until retirement. He attended the academy for his guardian training at some point but when isn't known. In his early adult life, Francisco married a witch named Maria who he cherished. They welcomed daughter Emma and were fostering a young girl named Andi and had plans to adopt her. Unfortunately, tradgity hit when Maria's life was taken by a witch. Francisco and the two young girls took Maria's death very hard. Without Maria, Francisco strugged to pay the pills while also providing for two growing pre-teen girls, and after much concideration, Francisco came to upsetting conclusion he was no longer able to provide for Andi fincanically and arranged for her to live with her biolgical aunt. He regretted this decision dailey as he loved Andi as his own daughter and had planned on taking Andi back once he was finacially able too. However, Andi was happy with her aunt and Francisco decided not to disrupt her life again. He always saw Andi has his daughter and since Andi and Emma were best friends, Andi was often over at his house and he loved having her over.

**Becoming a grandfather**

As his daughter entered her teenage years and began dating, Francisco remained patient and understand with her, trusting her to make good choices and to be responsible. When Emma fell pregnant at just fifteen she was peterified to tell her father and didn't end being the one to tell him. In an effort to help Emma, Lily Foster revealed the news to Francisco. He was said to hate change and he did not take the news well. He was outraged. He waited for Emma to get home and couldn't even look her in the eye. He let her know he no longer trusted her and groudned her. Emma was shocked as he had never grounded her before and Francisco explained that was because she had never given him a reason to ground her before. Francisco also threatened to kick her out if she chose to keep her baby and gave her until the end of her pregnancy to decide.

Francisco spent most of Emma's pregnancy ignoring her. There were times he wanted to mend his relationship with her but didn't know how and was too stubborn to apologize. However, he was always there during the biggest events such as Christmas and Emma's gender reveal party even though he wanted nothing to do with the baby.

Towards the end of her pregnancy, Emma and Francisco got into big arguement when Emma revealed she wanted to name her baby Maria in honor of her mother. Francisco was furious over this and told Emma there was no way Maria would have supported Emma. Emma replied she knew for a fact her mother would support her and revealed her mother had visited her as ghost knowing she hadn't gone visited him too. Severly offended by why Emma had implied, Francisco kicked her out and moved in with her boyfriend.

After some convincing from his sister, Francisco decided to the hospital to meet the baby once she was born. Emma was alseep at the time of his visit and so he told Jax to let her know he had stopped by. Jax asked him if he wanted to hold his granddaughter. At first, Francisco refused stating he didn't want to get attached in case thing didn't work out and the baby ended up being put up for adoption, but after some convincing from Jax, he changed his mind and held her. His first impresion of his granddaughter was that she looked like Jax.

**Maddie, Sophie, and Andi's pregnancies.**

At the same time his own daughter was pregnant, his two teenage nieces as well as his former foster daugher were also pregnant. Francisco learned about his nieces being pregnant from his sister before he even knew his own daughter was pregnant, however his sister already knew Emma was pregnant at this point. Francisco never really commented on them being pregnant and wasn't harsh on them like he had been on Emma, but that may be because they weren't his children and Emma was.
