Because of his experience raising a child (Huey and Riley's father) and then raising Huey and Riley he knows when to use a belt, how to use a belt, and whom to use a belt on. Robert's combat style focuses primarily on his belt. It's also shown that, despite being a womanizer with a thing for younger women, Robert still loves his deceased wife and was touched when Riley painted her on the house. While he tends to get distracted easily and will sometimes be embarrassed by the actions of his grandsons, he has been shown to genuinely love and care about both Huey and Riley. That isn't to say that Grandad's all bad, though. This has lead to him being in debt for two million dollars. Robert has also been revealed to be extremely incompetent with money and finances. Robert can also be swayed quite easily by TV-advertisements which led to Him purchasing the demonic Siri.

Bitches) is also a pathological and compulsive liar Robert's also a major womanizer with an unhealthy attraction towards women who're significantly younger than he is-pretty much all the women he's dated over the course of the series look young enough to be his daughter (or, depending on just old Robert is, his granddaughter). He also says he's related to Jackie Robinson.
Quite frankly he earned more animosity from Black people then he did the Whites. When describing his experiences during those times he shamelessly includes himself alongside several important figures during that period. Robert describes himself as a "Civil Rights Legend.", though this title is often questioned by others throughout the series. A dream sequence revealed that he is cowardly and quick to abandon friends and family to save himself. He is perfectly fine with sneaking into movies without paying. As he says "I hate to see a child go unbeaten." He isn't exactly the best parental figure or influence. He believes in strict discipline, quick to go for his belt when the boys step out of line. Robert has been shown to be extremely prideful, impatient and intolerant. He never accepts responsibility for his actions, nor does he learn any lessons. The best way to describe Robert is that he is old yet unwise. He then forces Riley to paint over the side of the house. After Granddad sheds a tear, he thanks Riley and takes a picture of the mural on his digital camera. In the episode Riley Wuz Here, Riley spray-paints a mural on the side of their house of either Granddad and his deceased wife or possibly his son and daughter-in-law on their wedding day, copying a photo from the family album (though it was never confirmed which couple it was, it would still bring up some emotion). The exact fates of his wife, son and daughter-in-law are unknown, but they are considered deceased by all accounts. He was obviously married at one point and had a son (Huey and Riley's dad). But for him to be present during World War II and several civil rights events, he would be 85 to 110 years old today. The aftermath of the horrifically dangerous ordeal saw Robert doing some jail time with the Freedom Riders leader, Sturdy Harris, who was of questionable sanity. Robert accidentally got on the wrong bus with the Freedom Riders when he was trying to escape from a bus terminal employee for using the white's only bathroom. While living in Alabama during Jim Crow law, Robert was an accidental and unwilling participant in The Freedom Rides. Robert has three different looks as a young man throughout the series.

The bus driver was only offended by Rosa's, not his, unwillingness to move, however he also claims Malcolm X died owing him five dollars. He also had a grudge against Rosa Parks for "stealing his thunder," as he was sitting next to her on the bus and likewise refused to give up his seat. He specifically recalled showing up late for a march because he forgot his raincoat, much to the indignation of his cohorts. Robert also lived in Alabama during the U.S.
He had a close relationship with his sister, Cookie Freeman, who was the smarter and more responsible of the siblings, and often referred to Robert as her "Favorite Dumbass." During the war, his wingman, Moe, often took credit for things that Robert did or that they dually accomplished together, and Robert's angst about this culminated at Moe's funeral, during which he blows the lid off of some of Moe's more embellished accomplishments. Robert was a Tuskegee Airman and flew a P-51 Mustang, and was an active participant in the U.S. It is not known when Robert was born, but taking into consideration how he fought in WWII, he was probably born sometime in the 1920s.
