This is interesting. By no means do I consider a womyn who would have children and give them to Micheal Jackson an exemplelary mother. In fact, Deborah Rowe has admitted, "I did nothing to gain the title parent." But, IMO, she is a better person to raise them then Jackson. I doubt the kids are even his. They are light skinned, blonde and blue eyes. Highly doubtful children from a black man. Mixed heritage children are often VERY beautiful children, but they rarely, if ever have blue eyes, porcelin skin and tow head blonde hair. My guess is he got a blue eyed stud to stand in as bio dad. Maybe this man should get the children. What I think should be done for CPS (Child Protective Services) to take the children (all three of them, only two belonging to the womyn in question) and do DNA test to determine fatherhood. Then, find a good dad, or a good family for these poor kids. God only knows what he is doing to them. I don't want to think about it, as it makes me sick. Should Deborha Rowe get the kids? Probably not. By giving them to Jackson, she showed terrible judgemnt. IMO, she pimped out her womb and her children to a pedophile. But, also Jackson has NO right to these kids. The hardest part is, he is out of the country, and child custody is almost impossible to take away from a "parent" who isn't in the USA, but is a USA citizen.
ill be honest i really dont care much what any of those living in glass houses do "stars,actors musicians, rich snobs etc etc.
So why post. I don't care a lot of what is posted on the board. Why bother with things you don't care about. This is the PARENTING forum. This is a parenting issue. If you have nothing to say. Don't post. Sheesh.
My mother and I had an argument over the paternal genetics of the children that Jackson claims are his. I kept trying to tell her that even with his skin condition, children born of his own body would be of a darker look. There would be almost no genetic possibility for such fair-complected children. She didn't get it. I honestly hope that something is done, and soon. These children have already spent their developmental years with a man that has obvious problems (whether they include paedophilia or not). Their mental and emotional development need more than he obviously has to offer. And this situation needs to be looked at carefully.
I once heard (rumor?) from a supposed Jackson insider that they used a "sperm coctail", to impregnate the surrogates and that the cocktail contained none of Jacksons own sperm. I dunno if it's the truth or not.
My son has a black father and he's blond, green eyed, and very fair complected. You never know what's coming up in the gene pool, BUT, MJ should not be allowed to have any children near him. {Maggie! I'm so glad to see you! }
completely OT: Brighid, did you know that your signature picture was one of the reasons I picked my midwife? Besides talking with her and finding her very easy and open, as well as like-minded, I saw that picture when I first walked into her appointment room and felt completely at ease.
I have seen similar situations as Brighid's in my family and with other family friends, it's rare, usually there'd be more of a mixture between the two skin tones, but it does happen, even more common is blonde hair and blue eyes, on children whose skin does blend between fair and dark. However, I still don't think those are Micheal's kids, just because I can't imagine him being very interested in sex, he's very awkward and I think he used her for children and she used him for money. But anyway it surprises me that no one has tried to take away his children before, whether he's a pedophile or not, which I personally doubt, for the same reason I doubt those are his kids, he is definately crazy and unfit to take care of kids, its obvious to the public and I'm sure it's more obvious to people who know him better. I doubt the birth mother is fit to take care of the children either though, and it's a really sad situation for those kids. And the child whose named after his brother, poor kid. It really bothers me how people with enough money can do whatever they want just because they have enough money or fame or people protecting them.
Hey, Brighid, I missed you, too! How are all your babies and grandbaby? I have seen mixed heritage people with light hair and very very often beautiful green eyes, but these kids (Jackson's) are lily white, and their eyes are light blue. I suppose he could be the father. But, it scares me that he is with these kids, and in a country where nothing can be done to help them.
