I don't know if this was posted already. I looked for it but I couldn't find it anywhere.Jermaine JacksonDecember 14, 2009 by rob Filed under U.S. NewsThe brother of Michael Jackson, Jermaine Jackson, has made a statement about his father that as seen from the stand point of Michael Jackson he was perceived him as cruel and harsh. Jermaine Jackson is of the firm view that his brother developed the erroneous perception about their father. He told that his father was not like the one his brother portrayed. He told that his brother, when he was alive, made wrong accusations on his father, Joe, according to reports of ContactMusic. Michael Jackson revealed many stories about this father how he used to scold and torture him not only physically but also psychologically.The pop legend died few months ago due to intake of cocktail of drugs suggested by his doctor which resulted in his death. Many-time plastic surgeries had led to painful complications for which he had to use drugs to mitigate his pain. But excessive and frequent drug use had made him an addict.Jermaine Jackson is of the view that his father played a vital role in their music endeavors which couldn’t be accomplished without him. Jermaine told that they are having the fruits of his father’s strictness which they hated at an immature age.The points Jermaine has made carry weight but the timing of the statement seems inappropriate. Jermaine Jackson has come up to expurgate and exonerate his father from the allegations of his deceased brother at a time when he can not come up to counter them. Now a pertinent question arises where Jermaine Jackson was when Michael made these allegations. What do you guys think? :|
I don’t find this weird and I to some extent agree with Christiana. However wasn’t Jermaine the one directing "The American dream: The Jacksons" which was about how the brothers grew up together and it showed quite in details how Michael felt and how abusive their father was, it was real abuse not spanking. Did Jermaine change the truth or perhaps he didn’t have a lot to say during those making of the documentary which I doubt. He later goes to do an interview together with his parents to support Joe and his actions, I don’t know wheter we have double morals or change of perspectives here…
Only God, Michael and his Father, knows what went on when he was younger. All the Jackson siblings came out and said that Joseph was hard on them. Harshness affects children differently. All that Michael wanted was to be loved and for his Father to show him love. He did feel alone, even though he had his siblings, Michael wanted to play with children his own age that was not around the business. He was not able to have that. I read that Michael would sometime go walk on the street and ask people to be his friend. That's all he wanted. He wanted friendship. He wanted to play hide and seek. Have pillow fights. Do what children do. This is why as an adult, Michael was more comfortable around children because they wanted to have that fun. Children are true to nature. They will tell you what you sometime don't want to hear. It's that unconditional love that we all seek in our own lives.
I agree ,children are differant and I believe Michael was more sensitive. People who were close to Michael ALL say that he would be the first to say that his childhood wa horrible but he would also tell you that he forgave his father. The most detailed he ever got are in those Rabbi tapes which is just hurtful to hear,but they are therapy tapes. He did not feel love from his father. I dont think his father had to be hard to make them famous or successful,and MJ would not have made such a point of raising his children differant than he was,if he were not effected in an adverse way. This article does not quote Jermaine as saying Michael lied it quotes him as saying "he was wrong. This could mean that he feels Michael should have never said anything,maybe he felt it was going against their father,which I have a feeling alot of what Michael did was going against Joe Jackson. As far as making them what they are today? What are they today? They have a show about what they used to be. I'm not saying that because I am MJ fan,EVERY child in a family does not have the exact same talent or draw.

What moved me the most about Mike's relationship with Joseph was the fact that Joseph often criticised Mike after the concerts and even slapped him in the face. Then he introduced him into the hotel room full of girls, fans, groupies etc... They were giggling and Michael wanted to cry, he felt so humiliated but he had to pretend everything was ok... Just imagine how he must have felt... How cruel Joseph was... (Michael mentions that in Schmuley's book as far as I remember...) :? I wonder if he did that to Jermaine... Probably not, because he stayed in Motown with his lovely wife... :roll:
