Parents VS. Michael Jackson

It's crazy! I know how it is because my family can't stand Michael either.
Just tell them that they are WRONG! How can they think something like this? I don't know what BS they watched.. but really.. tell them to listen Song Groove, Earth Song, Heal the world, Will you be there.. then say what's bad about MJ? His message was love... he loved, he helped, cared so many people..
If Michael is not a role model.. then I really don't know who can be a role model!! (I'm talking about persons, about human beings).
Loving someone doesn't mean worshipping him.
If they don't understand and keep their mind close.. just ignore them. I think the hardest thing is to fight with ignorance.
I hope they will open their eyes, mind and heart.. and see the truth about Michael.

That's a very beautiful pic of you and MJ! =)

Michael was a very nice, kind, caring, humble and polite person who worked very hard, a GREAT role model. I too would've been devastated if someone had taken my MJ stuff away from me! I totally understand that you were crying. Try to tell your parents all the good things about MJ (there are many), and tell them not to believe what they read, watch and hear in the media, most of it is fabricated to earn money, bad news sell better than good news.

My Grandma and sister the same way. My Grandma told me I can't stand Michael Jackson I don't know what to do that hurt me so. You shouldn't care what other people say even your own family let them talk just ignore them keep on loving Michael.

My parents don't bother on the subject pertaining to Michael, but my father teases me about him, but it's all in good fun. My parents do acknowledge the fact he was a great entertainer. I wouldn't worry about what they say about him what matters is that you like and appreciate him

Yeh it happens with me all the time!!!!! But the best i do is ignore and not let my craze and fandom down!!! I take breaths and control!

I know what you mean my parents don't like Michael ether my mom likes his music a little but she really doesn't like him all that much the only person that doesn't hate him in my family is my grand mom.

My parents were the same way when I found out about him this year. But my mom changed her mind when she watched This is It and Michael Jackson's Private Home Movies. I think my dad is ok with him.
But they are concerned that I worship Michael. Because I have posters on my wall of him. But I don't, he's nice to look at and he puts me in a good mood. And now that I like Johnny Depp too, they don't worry so much any more.

I feel sorry for you. I hope your parents learn to like Michael.

btw, what did your parents look at that made them so mad?

My moms boyfriend hates him. My mom really doesn't care. but I am surrounded with MJ haters. im sorry I know what that feels like. but I know that Michael sees everything now. What matters to him is tat YOU love him. and he loves you too. No, we don't worship him. im a devoted catholic so my parents know I don't worship him. none of us do, we just love him because he was an amazing example of a human being who we all strive to be like. don't ever give up on Michael <3
