I don't agree with anyone taking advantage of a child. I have children and I would be in prison if I found out someone took advantage of them. My question has more to do with why is it that when it comes to Michael Jackson so many people ignore the fact that a lot of these parents were sending their children to spend the night at his house. In my opinion I don't care if you are the ruler of the world I would not allow my children to spend the night at your house unless, and definitely not on your bed. I feel like many of these parents were overlooking that part and allowing their kids to have sleepovers with a grown man just for the hope of fame or money. In my opinion, the parents were just as sick as MJ.
Even when MJ was previously accused and settled out of court the parents still disregarded that.

"This is not the first time Michael Jackson has been accused of child molestation. Ten years ago, he was accused of sexually abusing another young boy. However, after the boy refused to testify, and after Jackson paid the boy’s family millions of dollars to settle a civil lawsuit, Jackson was never charged. Although the family in the current case against him has filed no lawsuit and says it does not intend to, Michael Jackson is still suspicious of their motives." http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2003/12/28/60minutes/main590381.shtml

"The boy — whose name and face we’re not revealing — has credited Michael Jackson’s friendship and support with helping him to battle his cancer. And last February in a British documentary that was filmed before the boy alleged he was sexually molested — he said that he had stayed overnight at Jackson’s home many times, and had slept in his bedroom."
This boy appeared on an interview with MJ sitting quite close to him. Where were his parents this whole time?

To Stranger: I may not know all of the facts about the case but, what I do know is that these parents trusted their children to stay and sleep in the same bedroom as MJ. My own kids don't sleep in the same bed with my husband and I unless for some reason my youngest is having nightmares. Regardless of how you MJ fans choose to look at it. It is a very strange thing for a forty something year old to want children sleeping in his bedroom with him. But, the most sickening part is that the parents allowed it to happen. I feel very bad for your kids that you would put them in that type of situation. Just because he has made great music, is rich and is known worldwide doesn't mean that he would not do something to a child and it is definitely not a reason to trust him with the very things you are supposed to protect. Young innocent people. Money is the root of lots of evil and in this case the root of reason you would allow MJ to have your child.
