Some can handle it and some can't , unfortunately MJ has lived in a false world all his life and envied the normal lifestyle as a child , he lived his life feeling that part of his life had been robbed from him.

Sorry I am a bit late on this one, but I think AB kind of hit the nail. He did get to live a dream, fame, fortune, talent, recognition, but all that came after he had already been messed up by "Joe." He just evidently was as someone said, a man-child, never taught how to "be a man" so to speak by anyone who could have been a role model for him. His father definitely was not that role model.

I think we all agree, the kid had talent. I love watching the "Thriller" dance routines, it is as good as any from Fred Astair to Gene Kelly. just in a different era and format.

RIP Michael

Just want to remember the great performer that he was. All the other issues are now over. No need to beat the eggs any longer.
