Area 8-year-old Danny Rasmussen is enjoying the attention of his parents for the first time ever, thanks to a bitter custody battle, it was reported Monday. 'I sure as hell ain't letting Denice get the kid,' father Larry Rasmussen said. 'She got the house and the car, so I've got to keep something from that bitch.' Denice Rasmussen expressed a similar determination. 'I'll do whatever it takes to deny Larry custody,' she said. 'I'll even take that kid out and buy him whatever he wants.' Danny, unaccustomed to being prioritized by his parents, is rejoicing over his newfound importance in their lives. 'This means that they love me,' he said.
