Jackson had so many problems in life, and was so out of tune and out of balance with living a normal life, he is probably better off now than before. Made into a child star, he had never been taught how to take care of his own life, he had never grown up with other children or had a normal family life. The whole family seem highly abusive and exploiting each other. Its a very sad life because Michael was so unusual, had such a unique talent and attribute to him which was frittered away. This man would not have known how to lead a normal life even if everyone he knew would chip in and try to help him to.

Vulture journalism everywhere you look and this mans body is not even cold...
Do people have no sense of humanness nowadays? The media has become a gossip and slander demon instead of a source for information.

I'm curious if the President has ever written a note to the families of the children who are kidnapped and murdered. I think it is inappropriate for him to have done that, since it is MORE of a tragedy when a child is murdered.

Doesn't surprise me that the Nanny has tons of stories to tell, but I don't believe for one second that he didn't take care of his children nor do I believe they were neglected. She's got lots to say NOW for someone that was sacked a few months ago. Hmm..I wonder if she feels the need to come rescue the children so SHE can get her hands on some money.
People always talk sh*t...it's so disturbing, and just because someone is 'different', doesn't mean they are freeks either...
So, #7, thanks for that link, I didn't read the whole thing, got tired of her slandering him as well....
