Future Of Michael Jackson's Kids-Featured

What will happen to the children... Prince,11 and Paris, 9?

Debbie Rowe, ex-wife of Michael Jackson gave up custody of her children. Now she wants to re-establish a relationship with them. " I'm their mother... they need me." 

And will the surrogate mother make an appearance? Or will the aging grandmother, nearing 80 years old look after them?

The mother of Michael Jackson's two eldest children is preparing to battle the singer's elderly mother for custody.

Former nurse Debbie Rowe gave away her parental rights in exchange for a £4.2million pay-off ten years ago.

But last night, she told friends she would fight 'tooth and nail' for their return.

Miss Rowe has only seen her son Prince, 12, and 11-year-old daughter Paris, who were conceived through artificial insemination, intermittently but believes she is more equipped to care for them than Jackson's 79-year-old mother Katherine.

...

Under the terms of their 1999 divorce, Miss Rowe received around £500,000 a year in instalments spread over nine years.

She was granted a day-long visit with her children once every 45 days.

It does sound more like She may want a lot of money and the Kids may help her get it.

Perhaps, but I hope she has some maternal instinct. She has kept in touch with them over the years apparently.

I don't think the surrogate mother can have any claim, although I don't know the legality of it all.

Um...she's their actual mother. Not a bad claim really.

this is absolutely ridiculous. first she gives them up for a great sum of money, and now her maternal instincts kick in. No, it is women like her that give good mothers a bad name. I hope MJ's mother gets custody of all three.

I wouldn't want those kids......MJ screwed them up so bad already that they'll be scared for life and a real handfull of problems.

MJ's parents are just as much freaks as MJ turned out to be. see ya, wouldn't want ta B ya

I hope that the 3 children remain together. It is bad enough that they have lost there father, I would hope that they are not seperated (the older 2 from the youngest). This would be devastating. My prayers go out to those children.
