I have to agree, I've been hoping that the abuse is unfounded. Not only do I not like thinking that another child was abused, but I've always had a soft spot for Jackson. Though I've found some of his actions odd, I've really always felt a little bit sad for him. I think his childhood had to have sucked.

I also get the sense that he doesn't have too many people around him who are telling him that what he does is weird... That he tends to isolate himself so that his children's masks, the sleepovers with kids, the neverland ranch and other oddities aren't questioned before they make it into the news. And by the time they do, he's already convinced they are rational and reasonable actions. Which, who knows, sometimes they might be.
