Jeff’s NY Post link is important because it has a picture of one of MJ’s kids wearing the purple semi-opaque veils he made them wear to the Berlin zoo.

You cannot persuade me that this person is a normally functioning human being.

What about those other, more important rites of childhood, like “being caught in a lie and learning the importance of telling the truth”? What about “getting caught stealing cookies before supper”? What about “being in the spring kindergarten musical with your peer group”? What about “having your friends from school over for a slumber party”?

What on _earth_ is this child-man going to _do_ when these cute little preschoolers turn into teenagers and suddenly don’t want him to be their best friend anymore, and when they shout at him, in time-honored teen fashion, “I hate you!” Have them locked up somewhere? Sent away to permanent boarding school?

Poor babies. ☹ All four of them.

He got his kids a pet TIGER cub? Don’t tiger cubs turn into, uh, BIG tigers? What happens then?

Bizarre. And very sad.

He’s crazy, but so are other people. They just aren’t as wealthy.

Exactly. He gets away with this shit because he’s wealthy and a celebrity.  
If this was some regular Joe Citizen who kept his children isolated and out of school, and took them to the zoo with a drape over their heads, the Child Welfare offices would have been called looooong ago.

No interaction with anyone their own age? I mean, surely Michael has nieces and nephews…

Then again-what parent is going to let their kids associate with Michael Jackson?

GET THESE KIDS AWAY FROM THIS FUCKTARD!!!

Okay, I can understand the need for security, and such. But for god’s sakes-NO SCHOOL? No TUTORS??? How will they learn anything?

He claims he loves them. Bullshit. It may sound trite, but when you love something, you set it free.

Good GOD, even the children of the last Tsar weren’t this isolated! Yeah, they rarely went out without police escorts-but they had lots of cousins and children of servants and members of the court and their parents’ friends and staff. They were always well-educated and spent lots of time with aunts and uncles and cousins as well.

Dammit.

Talk about overprotective.

This asshole has everyright to hide himself away from the world-but he does not have the right to make that choice for his children.

Hijack

Have you seen the picture of a daughter-perhaps Anastasia-playing tennis with a young man while the chaperone who looks bigger than Alexander III glowers from the sidelines?

The isolation from other children is the thing I find most disturbing about the upbringing of these children (although, granted, they may well have a lot of interaction with their cousins). While daddy can certainly afford the best tutors money can buy, these children - more than most - need exposure to a wide range of social experiences if they are not to be extremely vulnerable in later life.

That could be any number of photos.

Of course, subsequent photos would also show the girls clowning around said guard. It might be Alexei’s sailor nannies-he had two sailors as companions because of his hemophilia. And the boy liked to play rough-so they had to be careful because any spill could kill the poor kid.

But good lord, he was always going with Nicholas to inspect the troops, meet with ministers and staff.

Those kids may have been isolated-but not like Michael Jackson’s kids.

(If that wasn’t what you were saying, I appologize, I just thought I’d point that out).

That was me and **Doghouse Reilly** with the NYPost cites. **DDG** was citing the Herald Sun.

Oh no, just a mention since you are the SD Romanov expert, and I think of that photo whenever I think of children and chaperones.

Somehow I doubt his children are interacting with anyone their age, and if they are, it’s in a highly controlled environment.

Speaking of George Foreman (as we were a few pages ago), he was on _The Frank Skinner Show_ last week, and revealed that at one point he owned a tiger _and_ a lion. He eventually had to give them both to a new home when they started playing a little too rough.

Dangerous pets and weird child names – is there a correlation? Did Frank Zappa buy his kids a wolverine? Did Paula Yates have a piranha tank? Is Jamie Oliver shopping for a polar bear? Enquiring minds want to know!

I know Frank and Paula’s kids have bizzare names, but what are Jamie Oliver’s kid’s names?

From the linked Herald Sun article:  
[qoute]Jackson is already talking about adding to his family. He would like five children, according to US reports.

One can only hope that he is joking.

A-fucking-men.

To be fair, doesn’t neverland have a zoo? MJ may be the only celebrity that could keep an adult tiger as a pet.

Top 10 things Michael Jackson will have to do to shock us at this point:

1. Claim that the Powerpuff Girls have absolutely nothing to do with anime.
2. By a PS2 _and_ an X-Box, and act like this is the most natural thing in the world.
3. Listen to an N\*Sync album and actually seem to enjoy it.
4. Decry the current mass proliferation of American flags as “crass” and “a cheap attempt to cash in on a tragedy”.
5. Tell the so-called women’s groups protesting Victoria’s Secret to get a life.
6. Get into the goth look because “black goes with everything”, and openly question what’s so cool about vampires.
7. Join the Green Party and denounce Democrats as “Greens who are too scared to do the right thing”.
8. In a video game magazine survey, write down that he thinks Grand Theft Auto 3 is “a bit overrated”.
9. Go to a NASCAR race and act utterly disgusted when the fans cheer Jeff Gordon spinning out.
10. Divorce, give any children he still has up for adoption, and swear off marriage and fatherhood forever, then take his millions and disappear like he frickin’ should’ve done years ago.
