MJ went to the sperm bank and selected the sperm from a white donor to conceive the children. This has been reported for several days now.

Which makes you wonder about all the speeches at the funeral about how much Jackson did for the black image in music. He seems to have gone to great lengths erasing that image from his own life.

Somebody should point out to Al Sharpton that Jackson did not choose to make his comeback at the Apollo in Harlem, but Wembley Stadium in London. That is about as much a white people's venue as you can get.

joule18 - Reported where ? I do not believe this is a credible story.

All the reports I have seen have said that his dermatologist, who was Debby Rowe's boss, was the donor.

His kids are likely mixed race since Michael was African-American and Debbie Rowe was white. Not strange at all. Joe is just wanting to make money off the kids and is using this moment to grab it while everyone is not looking. The man only cares about his wallet's thickness in his expensive suits. If Paris and the boys want to be in music, let them make that choice for themselves. No one should push them into it. They just lost their father, I seriously doubt they are thinking about a career right now. Unlike Joe, shameless pr-ck!!

It is a guarantee that everyone in the family is looking. There can be no doubt that at this moment the plans are being made and the negotiations in the works to get those kids before the public.

That is not the Jackson Family, that is the Jackson Corporation and those kids are assets of the corpoation. They are not going to let assets just sit there which have such a potential to make income.

Oh I'd just love to beat your ass...but following your ****-eyed reasoning you'd become famous. I can't have that.

Your status as a sane and rational human being has not been established either. I have to assume you are totally stupid given your post.

So if he had not abused Michael, no one would know who MJ was?? That doesn't make sense. He could have handled his career with NO physical or mental abuse and the career outcome would have been the same...probably with no hang-ups on MJ's part.

Your statement demonstrates that you are the one with the racist mindset.

Does anyone else find it strange that Jackson's kids are white?

Maybe Michael would have been better off if no one had known who he was. I have no doubt that he would still be alive. He had all the money and fame, but he lived a miserable life.

Everyone wants to make Joe out to be the bad guy, but if he hadn't done what he done, nobody would have known who Michael was. Everything in life happens for a reason.

If it had not been for Hitler nobody would have known who Hermann Georing was. Whats your point?

"...Debbie Rowe has struck a deal with Katherine Jackson to keep Michael Jackson?s children from MIchael's father, Joe Jackson..."

This is the first, the one, and the only thing that has made at least a modicum of sense since Jackson's death.

It makes a great deal of sense and I am sure Katherine Jackson's people are advising her to do it.

If Rowe is proved to be the biological mother of the first two she will have parental say in what happens and in aligning with her Ktherine Jackson would then be able to take most of the assets away from the people running Michael Jackson Inc.

Legally, it is a very good move at a corporate takeove.

I dont believe the legality of the so called MJ kids is legitimate.
MJ did not father the kids.
As far as I know, his status as father was never legally established.
It seems everyone assumed him to be the father.
This is very unusual, and suspicious.

I think it is a very rational post. If Debby Rowe is the biological mother of the first two and it is shown that Jackson was not the biolgical father then she should have parental rights and not the Jackson family.

If Jackson did not legally adopt the children then the courts will side with the biological parent over the non-legal custodian.
by realnews12 July 13, 2009 5:08 PM EDT
Not true. Debby Rowe gave birth to the two older children while she and Michael were married. This is sufficient to establish Michael as the father. He does not have to adopt them.

Wrong. First, children are not automatically community property in a marriage and the biological parent has main custodial rights. In the case of atrificial insemination, unless the donor waves all parental rights in perpetuity and the non-biological parent legally assumes custody they do not have legal legal standing.

In the case of the third child, where the birth mother was a surrogate where both the sperm and the egg came from supposedly unknown donors that kid is in legal limbo. More so because when Jackson registered the childs birth certificate, under Mother he put NONE. (I would like to see what would happen if anyone else would try to file that and get the clerk accept it)

Wait a few months and you are going to see that who gets the kids may turn out to be the most legally messed up part of the whole estate.

Seems like a reasonable way to resolve this initial conflict. Considering Joe Jackson's vicious and abusive methods in raising his kids, JJ should be barred from getting anyway near the kids. It's interesting that pedophiles can be prohibited from coming in contact with kids, but abusive parents like JJ are allowed free access.
