Jackson’s sons can’t accept dad’s death

As is to be expected, the grief-filled months since Michael Jackson’s sudden death have been difficult for his three young children, but one them is said to be coping much better than the others.

According to the “King of Pop’s” sister, La Toya Jackson, 11-year-old Paris Michael has found a positive way to keep her father’s memory close. However, the singer’s death took a tougher toll on his sons, Prince Michael, 12, and Prince Michael II, aka “Blanket,” 7.

“Paris thinks and talks about her father all the time,” La Toya Jackson explained in an interview the Daily Mirror. “She’s doing very well, writes a lot and she wears his shirts every day. They still smell of him and it helps her feel close to him.”

But embracing the memory of Michael Jackson hasn’t come nearly as easily for the late legend’s oldest child.

“Prince just doesn’t want to speak about it,” La Toya Jackson told the paper. “He won’t even watch the DVDs — he just walks right past the TV. It’s too soon, too touching. I do worry about him very much.”

It’s a concern that carries over to the youngest Jackson sibling, who has allegedly confronted his emotions, if not accepted his loss.

“And Blanket is just a very sad, shy little boy,” the children’s aunt said. “He cries — he really does cry. It’s so painful for him. No one can bring his daddy back and it hurts so much.”

Each child will likely heal in his or her own time, but La Toya Jackson is hopeful that outside help may speed the process.

“They all go to therapy,” she revealed, adding, “and I truly hope Prince especially will be able to open up.”
