Michael Jackson's children are having trouble fitting into school because of their full-time bodyguards.

The late 'Thriller' singer's eldest kids - Prince Michael, 13, and Paris, 12 - have enrolled in The Buckley School in the San Fernando Valley of California, but have reportedly struggled to make friends as the other pupils find their full time minders "intimidating".

A parent at the school told gossip website PopEater: "The bodyguard situation really is a bit intimidating to other kids. And that makes them hesitant to approach Prince and Paris."

The bodyguards reportedly accompany Paris and Prince to their classes, to their lockers and even watch them during lunch hour.

Michael's mother Katherine - the children's legal guardian - was said to be skeptical over sending the eldest two to school, feeling it would be against the wishes of Michael who had always had them taught at home.

However, the son of one of Katherine's other children, Jermaine Jackson, stepped in and encouraged her to allow Prince and Paris to experience the wider world.

The youngest of Michael's children, eight-year-old Prince Michael II - known as Blanket - is still schooled at home, as he is said to be shy and the family feel he is not ready to move out of the home schooling environment.

One of Michael's friends, Lionel Richie, has previously said he thinks the children now have a better chance of a normal life now they are no longer in the care of the 'Billie Jean' hitmaker.

He said: "I think they have a better chance now. I think they have a better opportunity to live a normal life.

"It's hard to be Michael Jackson's kids because you're out and it's you with Michael Jackson, and he was larger than life."

Empty bowls of ice cream, misery, trying to keep my family together. This is what's been going on lately with me. Jada is in rehab to try to stop her addiction to alcohol, my mother is so busy that she can't even come home. I can't mend my family back together by myself. I need a friend, someone to hug, someone to kiss, someone to love unconditionally.

I looked over at the wall behind me, where a picture of Michael kissing me on the cheek was standing proudly in a red, glossy frame, I think we took it in early '74. My thoughts were interrupted when the news came on. And guess...

Amazing What People Can Do With Technology
After watching that hologram performance of Michael Jackson, I was completely mesmerized in awe of what people can do with technology; however,just like some of you,I've some mixed emotions in regards to the postumous digitally enhanced live performance from Michael Jackson via hologram. I wasn't too hyped up upon learning about the hologram being featured at the Billboard Music Awards, but I was quite curious to what it was going to be like, so looked it and I was quite impressed. Whether the hologram was real or not, it was history in the making in the music industry, and it go down in television...

Dahlia's P.O.V (After school)
So I return home and my parents called me in the living room. I walked in and said "What's going on?" I know that when they call me into the living room, something's going on. My parents were shaky like they didn't know how to tell the news to me.It was silent for a minute and then my dad spoke out the news that changed my life.
"Honey, I got a job that's far away from our house so we're moving."
My jaw just flew open."We are moving to Nevada" My mom said. My jaw was still flung open. My brother walked in and said " Wow, looks like she's pretty shocked!" My dad said...

Fancy's P.O.V.

Michael and his brothers were playing basketball in our backyard like normal kids. Tito was trying to be act like he was a great basketball player, which he isn't and Jackie stole the ball maliciously while Tito was on cloud nine.

The game only lasted about ten minutes, kinda pitiful if you were to play in the NBA. Today was the last day they could stay before they left in the morning, so we decided to hang out as for long as we could.

I was in the kitchen popping some popcorn during our sleepover downstairs. Auntie Colette was already asleep and left us to fret for ourselves....

Just about every year, I play Michael's music; in addition, to watching some of the documentaries pertaining to his life and legacy on Thursday, June 25th. I celebrate the life he lived, and look back all of his accomplishments despite everything that's been said about him in the tabloids and so forth. Sure, I was visibly upset when I heard about his passing, and I cried uncontrollably that that for the reason he's been apart of our lives for such a long, and I feel as though we all knew knew on a personal on a personal level, as well, as through his music. Michael Jackson was one of the greatest...
