Joe Jackson and Michael
My opinion about Joe Jackson and the relation with his kids.
I can not fully judge Joe Jackson behavior, and though his behavior with his kids can look to us non-conventional, I can not tell JJ how he should have behaved at that time with his kids, under those conditions when he raised them. JJ is MJ father and I do not think that MJ would have been happy to see and hear his fans continuously throwing the same things to his father's face.
I personally would not like hear others telling everyday to my father negative things because ppl know that me and my father had a personal relationship different from the one that others may have had, despite the relationship I had with my father may have left in me some emotional scars.
What I would want from ppl , would have been being understanding of how my youth (including the relationship I had with my father) affected me and the way I am and behave in life,today.
If I say that I love my father despite the pains I had in my youth and I state that I accepted and understood how and why my father behaved that way with me, despite I do not agree with his behaviors, but moreover I added saying that my love for him as grown with the years, and I see him changed, I would personally not like hear ppl saying that my father was bad and cruel...
Try to put yourself in MJ's brother's and sisters' shoe and also count how many times they defended their father from the words that fans and press have thrown toward their father....
JJ may have had his ways and his strong character toward his kids, probably caused by the poverty that he and his family was living in, living in a bad neighbor and with the worries of having his kids be negatively influenced by other kids ....to the point that when JJ witnessed the potentiality that all of his kids had, JJ saw that as the only way he had to give hope and a great life to all his family...sacrifices had to be made to achieve that, and some toll had to be paid for achieving it. They were all kids with incredible gifts , that were growing up as adults.
Do not forget that MJ was the way u know him, also because of his youth. If u would have cloned MJ and u would have kept MJ in your house, and grown him up using your conventional methods, u would never had the MJ that you now know and that u got to know over the years...The only and inimitable MJ, is the one that experienced the bad and the good parts of his life.
MJ "hating" on his father....Really ?
