Who Will Get Custody Of MJ's Kids?

mjkidscustody2.jpg

A battle over custody of Jackson's three kids, Prince Michael, Paris and Blanket, seems "almost inevitable" according to legal experts who spoke with the LA Times.

Debbie Rowe, the biological parent of Prince Michael and Paris, who initially sought to waive her parental rights, but later changed her mind, remains the childrens' legal parent.

“When a child has two legal parents and one of them dies, the other takes custody,” USC law professor Scott Altman told the Times.

Jackson's family, who feel the children will be better off with them as they have had virtually no contact with their biological mother, will have to prove that living with Rowe will be "harmful" for the kids.

Rowe didn't contest Michael's claim for full custody before, but now that his estate stands to rebound due to the simple fact that the amount of cash Michael was spending every month will now be curbed, will she fight to get a piece of that pie?

And despite TMZ's claims that the kids want to stay with their grandmother Katherine Jackson (who lives with her husband Joe in Encino), we can't help but think that Michael's unstable upbringing had a big part in his later problems and bizarre behavior. Would that really be the best environment for them?

As for Blanket's mother, her identity remains a secret, but she could come forward and try to claim custody of him as well.



This custody battle could even be bigger (and more complicated) than Britney and K-Fed's!

Their grandmother Katherine is too old to raise such young children. I think their mother Debbie and Janet should share custody.Debbie should be brought back into her childrens life to make amends.

the Jackson grandparents, aunts & uncles are too dysfunctional to raise children in a stable environment

Debbie Rowe has been bought out once, she can be been bought out twice - as a stranger to the children, she seems more interested in money than custody anyway

the nanny Grace Rwaramba would be the best person to have custody of the children - she is like family for them, has high standards and education

Don't think it's okay to show pics of his childrem. Respect their privacy!!

don't think the children are MJ's,so they should go to the mothers unless he legally adopted them.

The grandparents should not have those kids! That man abused his kids for years and the mother stood by and let him(probably abused herself.)
Debbie Rowe should have the 2 oldest and maybe the other one being it is not in their best interest to be separated from one another and who knows who that kid's mom even is.
Maybe they could have a somewhat normal life with her being she's not a celeb. Yes, she did have a monetary agreement to bear MJ's kids, but there is nothing really wrong with it if you look at it like surrogacy. And something tells me if there was a DNA test, we would find they aren't his kids anyway. Whatever he did to his skin to make it white or the supposed skin disease he had, he and a white lady wouldn't have white kids, they'd still be mixed and those kids look very caucasian.
I pray for those kids. They need it. Who the eff calls their kid Blanket as a nickname?! So sad all the way round.

Don't know anything for sure, but why do they call Debbie's kids "her" biological kid and Blanket "his" biological kid by a surrogate. Just asking. As for Janet, no. He was much closer to LaToya.

These kids should look alot more like the jacksons. As any children born to someone if a different race whether, black, korean,ect that gene overtakes the white gene. (example jon and kate plus 8)

THIS PHOTO WAS STOLEN FROM A BRITISH NEWSPAPER. WAY TO GO X17!

I think Debbie Rowe was artificially inseminated to have those kids, Michael is not the biological father of any of those kids..But he was married to Debbie when he had the first two, so they have his name and are considered his children..but "Blanket"..Im not sure where he came from. He just appeared in the family, in a cloud of secrecy!

yes anyone but JOE Jackson.

THE KIDS NEED TO CONTINUE TO STAY WITH THE JACKSON FAMILY AND HAVE LIMITED VISTATION TO SEE THEIR MOTHER INSTEAD OF LIVING WITH HER SINCE SHE DOESN'T WANT THEM ANYWAY......R.I.P. MJ.



Posted by: GKI

AND FOR THE PEOPLE SAYING PRINCE AND PARIS NEED A DNA TEST TO PROVE THAT THEY AREN'T MICHAEL'S KIDS...GO TO HELL!..THEIR HIS KIDS! THEY MIGHT NOT HAVE HIS DNA LIKE SOME PEOPLE ''CLAIM'' SINCE ''THEY DON'T LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE ANY BLACK IN THEM''...BULL SHIT! .I'VE SEEN PLENTY OF PEOPLE WHO ARE MIXED THAT DON'T LOOK THEY COULD BE.SO DON'T BE TO QUICK TO JUDGE YOU NEVER KNOW...BUT ANYWAY WHAT THE HELL DOES IT MATTER HE'S HAD THEM SINCE BIRTH AND TOOK CARE OF THEM UNLIKE THEIR MOTHER WHO SOLD THEM FOR MONEY...SHE DOESN'T EVEN CLAIM THEM.

i just hope the 3 little kids are kept together and debbie rowe shouldnt have any time with them as its shown through her willingness to take the money rather than the kids she should not have any custody just 1 big mess really just keep them all together



Posted by: Jade

There are lots of people out there who are mixed that does not look that way, my mother is black but you can't tell by just looking at me because i look white. Lots of people out there who looks white has black blood in them, but they embrace their white half, and live there lives as white so nobody knows the difference.I am quite sure that lots of you who are saying that these are not Michael's kids has black blood in you. Isn't it funny though that after all these years and every thing that we are going through that race is still an issue... (It is really sad). They are his kids whether you people like it or not,whether you accept it or not,besides your opinions aren't even relevant. R.I.P M.J

I would bet these kids are not genetically MJs. A simple DNA test would prove this.



Posted by: me

Why doesn't the biological father's of these children take them! There is no way that MJ could have been the biological father. No way whatsoever! These kids are too white, blue eyes, etc. If these kids were half black, and remember folks! MJ is/was a black man, then they would have so much more negro characteristics! I do agree though, that the Jacksons, especially Joe, should not have custody!



Posted by: me

Michael may have adopted these children, but they aren't his biologically. They don't even look like Jacksons, well maybe Prince may look like Michael, but think about how much work Michael had done on his face. Michael didn't even look like Michael.

Who knows what is in his will, how he provided for these children. Time will only tell.

the biological father of Prince and Paris is rumored to be their godfather Mark Lester - the British former child star

the id of the biological mother of Blanket is not public, it does not mean it is unknown

the will may have all the info about the biological parents

weather they are M J are not, Them kids are his.The money is over for the mother know she want to get back in the kids lives and that is not right.

Q: Who will get custody of MJ's kids?
A: The only two who can complete this insanity. OJ and Al (I never met a camera I wouldn't jump in front of) Sharpton



Posted by: xx

why do people say she sold those children , she took a divorce settlement as would anyone and quite small compared to what he was worth!



Posted by: Anonymous

Ok yes they were michael's only because he paid to have another mans sperm inplanted into the woman who gave birth to them...No they are not black..At All!!! not one infact have a drop of a blackman in them..But he did raise them,So therfore they are his Kids.It is sad how some people will have kids for there pleasure ..and not think of what the outcome will be if they are then just gone from their lives .Now we have three Kids who will be fought over one for Money !!! and for what else? Fame.. it is sad to watch the outcome of these 3 kids not ask to be brought into this.. I say let the Kids pick who they want to raise them..then they will finally have a say in what happen's in their Future.. SCN

LEAVE THIS FAMILY ALONE!!!!! It is so rude and anti-christian to just speculate on something that you DO NOT even KNOW!!!! Just PAPARAZZI gossip that is distroying every star's life. PEOPLE!!!! They are actors, musicians...they give us ART!!!! Just make the difference between the people on stage and their personal life... DO NOT JUDGE, as you will be judged in return.
I LOVE YOU MIChael, you'll always be in my heart and prayers...RIP.
