If I recall correctly, the story is that Dan's parents divorced while he was still in high school and he and Rosanne were together by then. Supposedly his mother was mentally ill and his father was a neglectful salesman that Dan forever blamed for his mother's troubles.

Dan warned Crystal that she would be lonely after she married Ed (his father) and he was right! He came home long enough to knock her up twice and then abandon her for the salesman job just as he did Dan's mother. I NEVER liked his father. I thought he was perfect for the "salesman position" character because he was FULL OF IT!
