I’m very proud of that.
They’ve gone on to bigger and better things and that gives me a great sense of pride.
My heart goes out to anybody thats been victimized, or their families, he said.
So to hear that theyve gone through terrible things like that is really tough.

Its supposed to be a safe place for kids.
And to hear all about that is just like, How dare you?
Thompson previously credited Schneider with helping him make amends with Mitchell after theformer costars had a falling out.
I know you havent spoken to Kel in a while, but do you have a problem with him?
And do you have a problem with me putting him on a new show?
Of course I didnt.
Have you talked to Kel in a while?
I feel like hes changed.
He told me hes in the church now.
Hes really trying to repair those relationships… You guys should talk.
