Will shares Willow and Jaden with Jada

"My father was violent, but he was also at every game, play and recital," Will wrote.  "He was an alcoholic, but he was sober at every premiere of every one of my movies.

"He listened to every record. He visited every studio. The same intense perfectionism that terrorized his family put food on the table every night of my life."
