Perhaps I am not as generous as I think I am. Maybe I am wrong to think that it is wrong, plain and simple, for a grown man to sleep with little boys. As far as I am concerned it is criminal. Parents are told that they should not allow their children to sleep with them after a certain age because it is harmful to the child's development. Why would it be less harmful if a wealthy stranger, who claims there is no touching, does the same thing. It seems to me that a lot of people have sold themselves and their children who really have no say in this matter for money. I understand that Jackson's accusers mother may be called to the stand. I wonder what she will say or can say to justify that she allowed her child, her young son, to sleep with a grown man. I wonder how Jackson's parents can sleep at night knowing that they are a part of this sickness? Has anyone in the Jackson family ever thought how this will play out years from now--they are father, grandparents, aunts and uncles to Michael Jackson's own children. Which relative will answer when they are asked if it is true that daddy used to sleep with boys? 'Did you know what daddy did grandma?' If this were simply an issue concerning sexual preference and consenting adults we would not have this circus. It is said that 'money talks', but what is it saying in this case?
Is this behavior any different from clergymen who violate those they are supposed to love and give guidance? Are these parents any different from church leaders who allow these clergymen to go to the next place of worship to prey on young boys just to satisfy their own selfish needs. I don't think so. What have we come to?
