Rowe Settles Custody Issues Over Jackson Kids

Debbie RoweTMZ has learned Debbie Rowe has settled her custody issues over Michael Jackson's children and it doesn't involve a single penny ... but it does involve a shrink.

Sources tell us, Rowe has agreed that Katherine Jackson will be the guardian of Michael's children, subject to the judge's approval.

Rowe will get visitation of the two children she had with Michael.

But here's what's interesting -- Rowe wants and will get a psychologist who will visit the children and help them adjust to her being in their lives on a meaningful basis.

Rowe will maintain her parental rights. We're told the agreement does not specify the amount of visitation.

The agreement says Rowe has no parental rights to Blanket, Jackson's youngest child.

16. A very shrewd, correct decision.
There is no way that the childred can grow up without contact to their Mother, whatsoever happened, or people 'think'. I wish them all the best, with all the love of Michael in their hearts and memories, for their hopefully happy future.
Debbie: My respect for a carefully thought-out decision taking the interests of the children as top-priority!

21. Finally someone does and says something sensible in this whole thing. Whoever came up with the idea that the children need help and time to adjust to Deb - herself or someone else - did some good thinking. I hope she will be a good visiting Mom and that all will benefit from the arrangement. Maybe she will need some counseling too, to sort out the strange tangle of dealings and deals with Michael Jackson in respect to the kids.

22. Finally! Someone who is actually thinking of these kids. Yes, she WAS the childrens' surrogate, but once Michael died, this changed. Anyone with the capacity to reason can understand how this woman felt the obligation for these kids as both she and Michael recognized that he was the primary caregiver--primary, not the only.

It is lovely to see someone who is dealing with the situation with love and caring.

24. All i got to say is that we are all human we all have the same right celebrities should not be treated like gods. yes michael jackson passed very sad about that but let him go in peace we are keeping his spirit alive and it needs to go to a better place.
When he makes it to heaven he will look down at us and smile. he wont be looking only at people like chris brown and madona but every one. So i think celebrities are fake. well most of them they know who they are. it kills me to see only celebrities in newspapers and magizines. its sick and not right. how bout put this in a magizine so the know how citizens feel!!!!

25. I commend Ms. Rowe for agreeing on what seems to be a temporary custody agreement and a delay of millions of dollars that she will indirectly inherit from Michael Jackson’s estate once she gains the children trusts and become their legal guardians. What better way to assist her in this endeavor that to have the support of a psychologist- legal medical documentation. Ms. Rowe is using her head wisely and thinking about the psychological future of these children that will equate to millions of dollars that Ms. Rowe will eventually earn. She’s also positioning herself in such a way that America will forgive her for selling her children in the past for millions of dollars. This forgiveness will support her in the millions of dollars that she is expected to earn once she becomes the children legal guardian. Smart move Ms. Rowe!!! Smart Move.

26. sounds reasonable to me. and i agree with whamo. why is everyone picking on her. as far as i know she's never said a bad word about michael or his skills as a father. quite to the contrary.

27. I cannot help but wonder: how screwed up will these kids end up?

28. On Bashir Prince said Michael had told him he didnt have a mother. Thats the type of person MJ was. He TOLD his children they didnt have a mother - that is from MJs own mouth and it disgusts me.

Read Debbie Rowes Court testimony she had been trying to get visitation to those children for ages and Michael Jackson promised it then went back on his promise time and time again. What kind of father does that?????

I hope those kids can forgive him now they know the truth.

29. Well, thank goodness this part has been cleared up! Give all these people some credit, folks! You may think whatever you want, but the bottom line - everyone involved was thinking of what's best for the children! KUDOS... It's hard enough on all of them, without the rest of the circus! I applaud them for keeping it out of court - Michael knew what he was doing - let him rest in peace!

30. VERY STRANGE !!! SHE SAID IN AN INTERVIEW THAT SHE WAS GIVING UP HER PARENTAL RIGHTS AND THAT SHE NEVER WANTED THESE CHILDREN TO CALL HER MOM..AND NOW SHE'S COMING BACK TOWARDS THE CHILDREN. HUMM...PROBABLY NOT VERY HEALTHY FOR THEM..!!!
PEOPLE CAN BE REALLY WEIRD SOMETIMES...I REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND IT.
