Michael Jackson's dad looks at entertainment potential in his grandkids
editor
Michael Jackson's father,
Joe,
was interviewed by ABC News to discuss how he believes
his son's death was "foul play." The segment appeared
on
"Good Morning America" today.
The elder Jackson said he and his wife, Katherine, should raise
Michael's children, Prince Michael, 12, Paris, 11, and Blanket,
7, saying they would grow up to be "strong Jacksons."
Jackson was asked if "his eye" saw hints that his
grandchildren could grow up to be performers. He said that Paris
"wants to do something" and that Blanket "can really
dance."
And I'm sure that most everyone cringed upon hearing those
words come from his mouth.

andrew b, your comments leave a very sour taste in my mouth. how could you say you are glad micheal died, and how could you call him a pedophile while he was never convicted for such a crime. the law states that you are pressumed innocent until you are found guilty. micheal was tried but was not convicted take note.those are indeed very sadist and ungaurded comments.

I think that's all Joe Jackson wants! Someone else he can live off of. All he is going to do is ruin those poor grieveing children's lives.
Me personally i think they should live with their Aunt Janet, I mean way those children clung to here at his funeral! She's clearly good with them & Paris obviously loves her. She seems like she would be good for them.
Diana Ross would also be a good person for his children to live with! Look at how good she was with Michael, she even said that he looked at him as a second mother. Look at how well her kids are doing, I mean that does say alot.
I just really hope the oldest two biological mother doesn't get them! I honestly think she's only looking at those children as her claim to fame ! shy my a$$ she wants money & she wants it now. she knew not showing up to Michael Jackson's funeral was going to cause headlines! Plus she even said herself that she's not a mother. She wouldn't even know what to do with those children!
If Debbie Rowe gets them, then that mean's little Prince Michael || would be by himself. I just think that Janet Jackson or Diana Ross should get those kids.
Best Wishes! Kayla.

Joe Jackson is a man who abused his kids even if he didn't do it physically (but I believe he did), he certainly did it emotionally and it's proof by MJ's leaving him out of the will. I also agree that Katherine may be a good mother, but she can't stand up to her husband. Just my opinion. I agree with some of the other posters on here that Janet seems to make the best parent choice for the kids, BUT if there is proof that the kids spent a significant amount of time with Debbie Rowe, it makes sense for her to get them. She is the biological parent and if she is the right choice and the kids are fine with it, I say that's where they belong now.

i hope joe doesn't have parenting rights whatsoever as far as those kids r concerned...even michael said that if they wanted 2 b in that field, they would do it by their own choice full knowing what they're getting into. i truly hope katherine doesn't allow him to rule her and those kids...that's sickening. these sweet children do not deserve this exploitation, it should be their idea, and he should not be involved.

You already ruined MJ's life by living vicariously through him and your other sons because you didn't cut it, now you're gonna exploit your grandkids? This man needs to go.

I believe Janet would be a good choice as well.
As for Joe having parenting rights…..?! I don’t think it would matter to him one way or the other. He strikes me as the personality type…’It’s my way or the highway!’ He’s a narcissistic, overbearing control freak and he’s going to do what he wants. How can you control someone like that if you are weak minded.
Sadly, he see’s these children as another pot of money at the end of his rainbow and if grandma doesn’t have the strength to stand up to him he will groom these children in the same abusive manner that he groomed his boys.

I have no doubt at all that Joe physically and verbally abused MJ as I was physically abused by both my parents till I was about 12 and the verbal abuse did not stop till I was in my late teens.They are both gone and sad to say,I do not miss either of them as the hurt doesn't go away.
I do hope that someone other than Katherine gets custody of the kids as they should not be near Joe, but it should not be Debbie either as she does seem to be after the money and not much else.

Andrew B~ This is no one way to you or others who share your opinion an attack. You and those who share your unfounded theories/opinions are seriously lonely, attention starved, sad and frustrated individuals. I can't imagine how you live with yourself after posting a comment where you wish death on someone or happy they're gone. Can you please, please further explain your labeling M.J.? Where did you get your facts? Where was I and the rest of the world when Michael was found guilty and by a court of law labeled a pedophile?
Geez, funny how the impact of one mans death, whom millions admired and loved, can cause the saddest, loneliest souls to "try" and get a "piece of that attention." Yes, even stooping down to the level of, what appears a small group of individuals suffering from some type of mental or behavioral disorder. One that involves a need to insult and shock simply for much needed attention.
Andrew B~ I do agree with your first sentence... well the first three words anyway. You Andrew B. don't think.
