Michael Jackson's 79-year-old mother won temporary guardianship of his three children Monday and moved to take control of his estate.

Michael Joseph Jr., 12, Paris Michael Katherine, 11, and Prince "Blanket" Michael II, 7, who have lived an extraordinarily sheltered life with their eccentric father, could inherit millions.

Michael Jackson's mom Katherine Jackson, 79, has filed for custody of her son's kids.

How did you post this? It wasn’t allowing any chat posts?

I can’t stress enough how much I don’t care.

[Carley]

We can only hope that the Court appoints an attorney for each child.

[tpmintx]

Ummm... Let’s have a paternity test.... Who’s your daddy?

I doubt those kids have any biological relationship to the Jackson family.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Meh. Just three more kids they can screw up and throw out into society.

[hoosiermama]

For the youngest we can say who’s yer mama. I should know.

The Jacksons already raised one generation of screwed up, self obsessed, greedy self mutilating (plastic surgery) kids, who can’t handle finances. I don’t think Katherine should get another chance.

At 79, she may not live long enough to see them to adulthood.

"We can only hope that the Court appoints an attorney for each child."

I don't know about California, but in my state of Ohio, a guardian ad litem is very commonly appointed when a person dies in testate, or has a will that doesn't address custody issues. And I agree, each child needs to have their own, especially given this freak show circus that's about to play out.

[cubreporter]

Well, they are just children so let’s hope they make it. God bless them.

[The Toll]

Someone should free those kids. Being born into bondage is horrible.

[Natural Law]

Where are the race pimps demanding that the children’s race and culture be maintained in the custody decision. Shouldn’t the kids go to a “white” family?

[FreeManWhoCan]

So after reading for years that Jackson’s father abused all the kids and they all ended up messed up in the head (platic surgeries, a Muslim, pornography etc...) MJ’s kids are ending up in the hands of Joe Jackson again?

[FreePaul]

...a guardian ad litem is very commonly appointed...

In Texas the ad litem is most likely a heavy contributor the the judge and may or may not do anything to represent the child except present bills for "services."

[Sacajaweau]

I would guess the weirdo would have a will....and she was designated hitter...

Time for some DNA testing....I just don't believe these are his kids...

[lonestar]

I was glad to hear the mother doesn't live with Joe anymore. She was probably abused just like the Jackson kids.

Joe Jackson is already hawking a record label. Somebody should tell him he can't get $$$$ until after debts are paid.

Call the New York Times - they would love an "outrage" stroy ( just kidding - they're so biased they won't be able to see that the children are white)

[Deb]

And the point of that would be? As if they haven’t been devastated enough.

[Sacajaweau]

Don’t see any “black” or any resemblance to Michael.

In each picture, the children have sad and distrustful eyes. I can't reasonably see any hope for them in the circus to come. The photo in another article of Al Sharpton and Joe Jackson said it all to me. The kids will remain in bondage.
