JANET JACKSON OFFERING TO RAISE KIDS

Janet Jackson


Pop star Janet Jackson is offering to help raise her brother Michael's children, who look to their superstar aunt as a "mother figure", according to media reports. Janet is said to be helping her mother Katherine look after the children since the sudden death of their father last month. And Janet has allegedly offered to take in the youngsters if their elderly grandmother, at age 79, is unable to do so. A source tells Britain’s The Sun, "Janet has said, ‘I love them and I’ll step forward and raise them if this is what they want.’ She tells everyone she loves them as if they were her own. "The children have chosen her as their confidante and mother figure, and Janet feels her place is at their side. She’s completely bonded with those children in the last two weeks. "It’s clear to everyone that they are looking to her for comfort and guidance. Janet is blossoming as a woman with tremendous maternal instincts." Michael's mother, Katherine Jackson was awarded temporary guardianship of the children pending a custody hearing later this month that the two older children’s biological mother, Debbie Rowe, is expected to be attending. Jackson’s will, which was filed in 2002, stipulates he wanted his mother to have custody of the children in the event of his death, and names singer Diana Ross as his second-choice guardian.

No matter what the kids should not be given back to there real mother Debbie Rowe. She has already hurt them enough. The children do not even know her, little lone being a mother to them. She has no other children, and has nothing to do with these 2.The children should be left to Katherine("grandma")or any one in the family. Paris and Prince would love to be with there real family instead of someone who has never been there and they don't even know. It was very clear how much they love there family. Where was there mother when they needed her the most?She was no where around. That is where she needs to stay. Debbie Rowe should have no rights to see, talk, or even spend any time with them. She gave her rights up along time ago. The only reason she want them now is for the money and the things they are to inheriate from there fathers estate and will. I hope the best for the Jackson family.

As soon as I heard the news of Michael's death I knew Janet was the best person to raise those children. I'm not saying anything against his mother Katherine but I feel she is to old to raise them properly. It's just my opinion but I feel strongly for Janet raising the children all of them. The mother of the other two obviously signed some sort of agreement for money to give up her custody rights to her two children. Am I Right? So how could you trust a mother to raise two children for the wrong reasons (money) and not love. That's just not right. She doesn't want the children for love she wants them for an exploration tool. Janet is the right chose for the children, has anyone seen the movie "Raising Helen" she did it and quite well too. I do realize it was just a movie but the plot was about the same as the situation in hand with Janet isn't it? She can do it and be wonderful! And Katherine shouldn't fight it she should be proud she raised her children to be involved with the other siblings in situations of emergencies. God Bless! A child of Jesus by the name of Angela.
