Michael Jackson’s father suggested that he may have neglected the three children he raised as his own.

During a pointless and disorganized press conference today, Joe Jackson told reporters that Michael’s three children were “happy” now that they had other children to play with.

Joe told the assembled reporters that the three children — Prince Michael, 13, Paris Michael Katherine Jackson, 11 and Prince Michael II, aka “Blanket,” 7 — were excited to finally have other children their age to play with back at the Jackson estate in Encino, California.

Joe suggested that Michael isolated the children away from other kids their age. Which is sad when you consider that Michael spent his adult life trying to reclaim his own supposed lost childhood.
