""The problem with that is he never really had a personal life. He never had a chance to live."
For Jackson, the pressures of celebrity "exaggerated and exacerbated" what likely already were some deep emotional and mental wounds, according to Wanis.
Multiple reports from the Jackson family, including Michael, described severe beatings and emotional abuse by Michael's father, Joseph Jackson, who relentlessly drove his children to become pop superstars.
Michael's actions in later years -- from his serial plastic surgeries, which removed all family resemblance, to his famous crotch-grabbing dance move -- can be seen as lashing out over that abuse, Wanis said.
"He resented his father," he said. "He was in rebellion, almost like a subconscious rebellion, against his father."
So let's perpetuate the Jackson's bad behavior to another generation.....if those kids are not already screwed up!
