Perhaps the most important point made so far.

And because of the way the presidential election was handled in Florida, I'm not a Jeb Bush fan at the moment. But, as a father who had a child with an addiction, I feel for him as a man. They tell you, during the rehab period, that parents should not feel guilty about their children becoming drug users. That's absolutely true -- but it's also impossible at least to some extent.

You just can't help wonder if there wasn't one more little thing you might have done to prevent it.

Usually, there isn't. But you still wonder.
