Default Question about Michael Jackson

Hi everyone, I am new to this forum, and I am not sure if this is the right forum to post this. My question is why was that child with Michael Jackson in the first place, where was his parents, why did they leave him with Michael Jackson at his ranch, and shouldn't that child be in school?
I hope someone knows the answer to these questions.
Thanks.

Anyone really, what is the reason for the kids to be at his ranch, and are their parents with them? Why are these kids sleeping over at his place?

Well, one possible reason is: in hope of money.
The accusations may be true, but they may as well be totally fabricated. There are people in the world who want to get rich easily, and what better way to do it than to sue a rich weirdo of which many can easily believe he's a child molester. (Shouldn't be that hard if you look at all that's been written about the guy.) And look at him, doesn't he look a bit freaky? Must be a child molester....

As much as i think Jacko is a freak, i saw a documentary about him a few months back, and the guy really sounds genuine about his "love" for children. Wether he does anything more or not is to be uncovered, but in his mind i think he believes not be doing anything wrong...
The families of the children allow for the kids to stay because they are poor and Jacko can take "care" of them, with food and toys. I doubt the parents knew he was a pedophile, i can´t see a parent delivering a child to be sodomized. Maybe they knew, and are preparing for a humongous lawsuit...
Quick way to make a fortune, right?

To my knowledge he hasn't been convicted for any child molesting. So he should be presumed innocent until proven guilty.

True. It was a poor choice of words. What i really meant was that the parents had no idea there was funny stuff going on with them. But Jacko has already admitted to sleeping with children in his bed, so...
Either the parents had no idea strange things were taking place, or there´s the distint possibility they did, and let it slide with the hope of monetary compensation. Like a shuting up fee..

Shouldn't a parent be worried that this man, regardless of his status is sleeping in the same bed as my child, even if he wasn't doing anything, a grown man should not be sleeping in the same bed as a child.
The parents should be charged with negligence.

I'd agree that this needs to be considered. Jackson routinely invited cancer survivors (such as this child) to his ranch which is designed for children with amusement rides, games, horseback riding, etc. A lot of people believe or believed that Jackson had only the best intentions for inviting such children to his ranch (often the entire families were invited). This comes down to how much the parents knew of what was going on there (e.g. did they believe that their child was going to have their own room?). Nonetheless, parental negligence in this case would have to wait until a guilty verdict and even then might not be provable.

With Jackos resources, this legal battle will last for years. Decades even...
