Martin Sheen understands son Charlie's 'hell'
“Sheen, 70, has been through similar difficulties, he concedes: “I know what hell he’s living in. I’ve had psychotic episodes in public. One of them was on camera — the opening scene of “Apocalypse Now.” … I know what Charlie is going through. And when you do something like that, that is out of control, that’s the most difficult thing. You have to have courage.”

It’s nice to see Papa Sheen and Bro. Estevez not getting down in the shit and bad-mouthing Charlie like the rest of us. They could easily turn their backs and say, “Poor Charlie - he’s a nutbag and a lost cause,” but they don’t and Papa Sheen even admits he’s been there, too. And I, for one, think that’s a pretty nifty family-type thing to do.
