Van's the best father I know of, too. Also, kudos to you, Marty, for the gutsy "open letter." I can’t argue with these sentiments. Van’s the best father I know of, too.

My parents were divorced and my mom fought constantly to keep away from my dad. Why? Because I was physically, emotionally, and sexually abused in his home. The fact that dads like Van exist is incredibly comforting to me. And I find it so desperately sad that he's so far away from his kids. Dana, if you ever see this -- you're very lucky to have Van as your children's father. Don't let any other problems cloud the realization of that. You know, I completely agree with this post.
