Physical & Emotional Abuse Support Group
Abuse is a general term for the treatment of someone that causes some kind of harm (to the abused person, to the abusers themselves, or to someone else) that is unlawful or wrongful. No one deserves abuse, period. Abuse can be emotional, physical, or sexual.
I heard many rumors and heard the stories from his children own lips and Micheals. And Watch their movie about their lives. I learned how abusive Joe Jackson was as a father. Joe Jaskson admitted. He admitted as with his own words. When allowed that movie to be made. Which showed his abusive behavior. his action were in no way justified.
I understood Micheal Jackson and some of his what people call his strange behavior. His action were normal for an abuse child. His soft spokeness. His being afraid of crowds. His love of children. His shyness. His wanting to keep his life personal.
Micheal, I think always felt tore up because of mothers always stood by Joe. Even through the bad times. Being poor and broke does not make for a happy life. Joe pushing them to be the best. The long hours spent practicing. The yelling at his kids.
Micheal knew he owed a great deal of his success and work ethic to his father.
I heard Micheal defending his father once saying. I would not be where I am today if it were not for my father and I love him.
I remember being so angry with Micheal. I remember saying to myself. Why are you defending this man to the world. When made your life a living hell as a child. He said, He had made peace with his father and his father was not the same man he use to be.
I remember my own be very physically abusive as young child. My father favorite then to do was to pull hair and shake you. Beat you with belts. He would hit, punch and yell. I grew up totally afraid of my father.
But I remember, When I turned 10 year old. The abuse stopped. Because, My father got saved and started going to church. As we grew. He grew as a person and learned that it was not all right to yell and hit us. My father became a better person. It did not change the past in any way shape of form. My anger was still the same and I was not trusting in any way. But, my relationship changed with him and I new deep down he was sorry for his past
actions.
I think the same goes with Joe Jackson. Joe Jackson is not the same man he was twenty years ago. He,s tried to change and become a better man. I think Micheal being kind heart soul he was saw and forgave his father for his past actions. That does Micheal forgot the past of even totally forgiven his father . It just Micheal made peace with the father.
I think Joe Jackson has apologized to his wife and children for his past. And tried to change and be different man than the one he was.
Joe Jackson is still a black man of pride thinks he owns that apology to his kids, wife and God. Who he abused not the rest of the world. This in some people eyes shows an amount of arrogance. Which is a total turn off.
But, In the eyes of the world and the some people in it. People still think he needs to get down on he knees. Apologize to each of us pesonally for his past sins. Which is something he wont, do.

I am also sad for MJ, that he obviously was a sensitive child that was severely abused by his father. I found it interesting how MJ said they were not allowed to call him DAD, they had to call him Joe??
I feel JJ is a self-promoting, sadistic, classic abuser, whether MJ forgave him or not, he's an evil presence in this world that is leaving a sad and toxic legacy.
Like any other abuser, they need not apologize, it means nothing (they are typically not truly remorseful or sorry). And I personally do not believe in forgiving a crime in progress.
I know most of the things we hear from the media can't be trusted. But I don't think it's a coincidence at all that Joe was left NOTHING in Michael's will. And now supposedly Michael's ex-wife is going to fight for custody of the 2 oldest children. But she has made it clear that if she gains custody, she would get a restraining order against Joe Jackson.
The world has judged Michael Jackson by his very strange behaviors, but abuse survivors and victims should be able to understand how he became so messed up. It makes you wonder what kind of person Michael would have been if he hadn't grown up in an abusive home. He had such amazing talent, that cannot be denied. But he suffered emotionally for so many years, it's not surprising to hear he was medicating his pain (more emotional than physical, probably).
And you forgot to mention his racism that infected Michael and made him dye his skin and get so many nose jobs that finally, reputable surgeons refused to touch him. He had to wear that fake nose as the additional surgeries started a sink hole forming in the middle of his face.
He taught his son to hate his own black skin.
