    The media ruined this part of Michaels life. There are people out there who are unique and do things differently, doesn't mean they deserve to be trashed when nothing was ever proven.

      Michael Jackson era un adulto con infancia frustrada que pasaba sus momentos felices actuando como un niño y jugando como uno, la realidad es que es inocente, pero tuvo una vida personal tan horrible que lo llevo a hacer actos propios de niños siendo un adulto, lo cual a ojos del público siempre será algo malo y moralmente cuestionable, pero a ojos del sujeto se ven sesgados por esa felicidad de la infancia que nunca tuvo.

    I genuinely think MJ liked being around kids, not only bc his childhood was trash and non existent, but because hanging out with kids was the only time he felt comfortable and could be himself. MJ was oober famous. Like scary famous. Dangerous famous. There will never be that kind of fame again (because of social media) but MJ was so famous that he lived a very abnornal life. He couldnt go anywhere, he was hounded and harassed and yelled at, chased, always had to have security, one time he paid a grocery store to shut down just so he could grocery shop himself to feel like a normal human being. I think he enjoyed kids company because he enjoyed the same things kids enjoy and they looked at him like just a normal dude. He wasnt "the MJ" like he was to the rest of the world. I cant fathom living with that sort of fame. Ive heard other celebrities speak about how even they were scared of his fame and felt uncomfortable around him because of all the attention and fans he attracted. I think he was a big kid at heart and was until the day he died. Listen to the way he spoke, he blushed when asked about girlfriends, he never cursed, he was a gentleman. Was he odd? Definitely. But anyone who grew up and was surrounded with that kind of fame and attention would be. 🤷‍♀️ Just my opinion.

Maid didn't come forward until after his death. Everyone is accusing and bashing MJ based on people's words, without any actual evidence, when reality is these childrens' parents let them go stay in a grown man's house and even encouraged it!!!!

I love how he valued his friendship with Michael and doesn’t sell his friendship by releasing a book. I bet when Michael met Mac’s father for the first time, he could see his father in the eyes of Mac’s father.They both are child stars and have traumatic childhood due to their abusive father. MJ did a fantastic decision to name Mac as The Godfather of his kids. I truly believe that MJ welcomed all these child stars like Mac in his ranch to protect them from pedophilia in Hollywood.

  • @LyraDavis
    @LyraDavis Рік тому +2166

    I’m not a Jackson fan. Never bought a record. But I am kinda obsessed with researching the psychological ramifications of childhood trauma/neglect/abuse as well as the social fascination with celebrity along with the trauma sustained from growing up in the industry. Not to mention my all time favourite, religious cults and the dynamics involved with the combination of all of those.
    This case for me epitomises everything in one fascinating study case. I’ve read/watched everything put out in the public domain that I can get my hands on.
    Jackson grew up with a Jehovah’s Witness mother, with a tyrannical/abusive father, in a black family in 1960s Indiana, U.S. from a poor social- economic background (2 adults, 9 kids in a 2 bedroom house) and then was thrust in to world wide fame with no childhood and intense scrutiny.
    My belief is he suffered from major arrested development, I don’t believe he matured mentally beyond the age of about 11. I also suspect he may have been asexual/aromantic but felt the pressure to present himself in a more socially acceptable light romantically. I also think he had a rightfully deep seated mistrust of not just adults but also therapists. He needed intense therapy but couldn’t seek it the conventional way. His therapy was living vicariously through other children, by giving them the chance to have the kind of childhood he wished for himself, thereby saving the broken child within himself. It’s the gross minds of others who can’t fathom any reason for an adult to seek out a kinship with children other than sexual gratification. Add in to the mix those kids money-hungry parents who used their children to exploit and extort him.
    As a former abused child myself, I have developed an enduring interest in the subject as well as a sixth sense for creeps and paedos. Can’t explain it, but when I’m near one the alarm goes off. I’ve never been wrong thus far. The alarm has never gone off with Jackson. I think he was so very wronged. People did him dirty.

Yes I also feel the same as you, and on top of that I think he didn’t have anyone telling him that people would think weird things if he hung around children. And he absolutely never imagined that they would go to such lengths as to accuse him of molestation. In his mind he didn’t understand people would see a (very dishonest selfish and harmful ) opportunity in the way he lived. And it’s not that he would be surrounded by kids all the time, most of the time he was busy and also surrounded by people. I spoke with his photographer and he told me how he was always swarmed by a bunch of people all the time. I guess people working for him.

    Mac is a real one. Mike was wise to pick him as a friend.
    He was not bothered by the age difference because Mike didn't believe in those kinds of boundaries.
    Michael saw ANOTHER Child Star about to go through the worst of fame & became that friend that Michael wished he had when his fame rose with the Jackson 5 in 1969.
    Through Macaulay, Michael got to be a true blue friend, a mentor, & a way to express those repressed feelings lost in his own childhood. The price people pay to jump those economic classes takes a toll. Especially on kids.
    When you look at it objectively, it is the EXACT same reason he befriended Emmanuel Lewis who played Webster on TV.
    And both Emmanuel & Mac NEVER disrespected their friendships with Michael not even for all the money in the world.
    For all the turncoats Mike faced in his life, at least he had some real ones around him like Macaulay.

    Mac and Michael’s friendship just sounded so beautiful and sadly so rare. I used to be great friends with one of my dad’s friends. And he never did anything harmful to me, not once, ever. We just had great conversations, great rides in his drop top, and great tea. I miss him a lot. He got sick a while ago and is just not able to go out much anymore. I reach out to him every once in a while to let him know I think about him.

    I dated a guy with a very similar personality type to Michael's. He adores kids and is still miserable that he doesn't have any, so he kind of adopts other peoples' kids. He is super fun and would be a great dad. There is definitely projection involved (projecting ones innocence onto children because adulthood brings problems and complications that children don't have, that he can't handle). He has a hard time being in the adult world, he just wants to dissapear into his sentimentalized fantasy world where there are no problems. I couldn't be with him for longer than two years because he was always too busy avoiding me, getting lost in his idealized image of me where i didn't remind him of real world expectations and problems. I see a lot of the same behavior patterns in him as MJ.

    I sadly never met MJ, i never attended a concert. But deep down i just know that MJ just liked children for their natural behaviour. MJ had a very unconventional Childhood as far as i know and so i strongly believe that what he did was basically living out the childhood he never had, yes he was a grown man by then but we all carry our inner child through live. And i believe if that child doesn't get to play in the real world, you will seek opportunities to do so. As said, i know as little as you could about MJ. I know i loved his music a lot. it's a gut feeling i have. MJ would never hurt anyone for the sake of his satisfaction. I can and won't believe that. I think MJ was more of a big brother to Mac. Nothing weird. Just a nice brotherhood in Michaels adulthood.
