Actress Melissa Fumero joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids, BUT…Can we not douse our kids in the bad family traditions we were subject to as children, and instead bottle them up and put them on the shelf for all of eternity?  Like many Cuban-Americans, Chris grew up smelling like a cross between freshly cut flowers and an out-of-work DJ thanks to Agua de Violetas, a cologne geared towards kids.  His mother, Sunny’s grandmother, is very big on this particular tradition for her grandson, but for Chris, and most importantly his wife, it may have a hard time passing the smell test, let alone being passed down a generation. Melissa Fumero gave her two sons very non-traditional names.  Her Cuban family refuses to accept this and opts to pronounce the names like they’re soaked in Aguas de Violetas.  It’s the fine line between honoring your heritage and knowing that some things are best left in the past.
