"My kids disagree with me at times and they’re respectful," De Niro told the outlet of whether he considers himself a "cool dad." "My daughter is 11, she gives me grief sometimes. I adore her. And my youngest now, so that’ll be more to come, you know, but that’s what it is." 

The "Irishman" actor said he likes to be "loving" with his children but having to be "stern" is inevitable.

"I mean, there’s no way around it with kids," he said. "I don’t like to have to lay down the law and stuff like that. But, [sometimes] you just have no choice. And any parent, I think, would say the same thing. You always want to do the right thing by the children and give them the benefit of the doubt, but sometimes you can’t."
