The Vultures In The Press Really Need To Leave Michael Jackson's Kids Out Of This Story.
Have you seen them yet? The 'What will happen to Micheal's kids?' stories with pictures of his children? Must they put his children in a fishbowl also?

It's ridiculous, isn't it. I feel for them.
The media is disgusting when it comes to this kind of thing.

In the end all the media do it for is money, which is wrong in a way. His kids never came into his story anywhere down the line, i dont rememver hearing anything about his kids. He still has family, and surely it goes without saying that his family will look after his kids. Another thing i dont get is that when MJ was alive, all the media and people did was joke about him, with the hole court case etc. But now he's dead everyone seems to think differently. Thats all i gotta say.

Yes. Children shouldn't be exploited in news material. Especially as victims.

I agree with your sentiment and the fact you're speaking up on behalf of the kids. I only disagree because he kept them secluded in his private freak show for so long that a little light of reality shined on their lives is probably not such a bad thing at this point. Until their custody is ironed out, which hopefully won't take too long, I'm kind of glad they're getting some attention. I'd say after custody is resolved, however, then the media and the world needs to leave them completely alone again.

 I hope the custody issue won't take long too. I also hope that the three of them are kept together, but I don't know how that will be the case if the mother gets custody of the two older children. There is so much speculation about whether the mother of the youngest even has any parental rights. Although I think he took the seclusion to extremes, I do think it is best for celebrity children to stay out of the media spotlight as much as possible. I also think that it is possible that Michael Jackson, as eccentric and odd as he was, may have been a very misunderstood person and that much of the ridicule and contempt that he endured throughout his life may have been the reason he chose to live as such a recluse with the kids. I have never really felt that he was a child molester. I hope I am not being naive about that, but now that he is gone I hope he can rest in peace and his children do not have to endure lives filled with constant bad press about their father...that is, unless I am wrong and they are victims as well. Right now, absent of proof, I agree with what you said in another debate...we should leave him be.
