Vic, as Dina implied, looks very determined to make up for lost time.

"I appreciate the fact that he's very attentive to the kids now, na talagang kahit na ba medyo wala siya masyado nung lumalaki sila," enthused Dina. "Hindi pa naman huli ang lahat to play dad. Hindi din naman natatapos ang role ng pagiging ama," she continued.

Vic's dedication and support now extends to her children's partners. Vic personally watched a PBA (Philippine Basketball Association) game to cheer Danica's husband Marc Pingris, who plays for the Purefoods TJ Giants.

"Like recently, nanood pa siya ng game ni Marc," said Dina proudly. "Talagang tinanggap na rin talaga ni Vic si Marc. Kasi noong una, parang natakot ako. 'Tanggap niya kaya?' That's the ultimate na 'Wow!' Nag-attend ka ng game ng son-in-law natin, parang ang cute niya."

Speaking of the kids, Dina spoke in behalf of son Oyo regarding his relationship with actress Kristine Hermosa.

"I know they're just friends," swore Dina. "Ilang beses naman na kasing sinabi ni Tin sa kanya na ‘I'm not ready to be in a relationship because I still have feelings for Diether [Ocampo].' And sinabi ko naman kay Oyo na huwag kang manghihimasok. Sabi naman ni Oyo, ‘Hindi naman ako nanghihimasok.'"

Dina follows the same rule in dealing with her children's personal affairs. "Never naman akong nanghimasok sa mga relasyon ng mga anak ko, e."
