Grieving the loss of their father, Michael Jackson's children are currently being taken care of by a nanny. Longtime lawyer for the family, Brian Oxman, tells Us Weekly that the kids are currently in the charge of their grandmother, Katherine Jackson.
"Ms. Jackson will care for them and I'm sure there will be all kinds of discussions that will take place about the kids," Oxman says. As for the rest of the family, they are understandably "stunned" and "barely even able to speak about it."
But it's unclear who will end up caring for the children permanently. Debbie Rowe, the mother of two of Michael's children, Prince Michael, 12, and Paris, 11, could possibly seek custody, but at the moment remains "inconsolable," according to her former lawyer.

I know this sounds ridiculous but WHAT IF Michael staged this whole thing to escape the demands of the real world (and his massive debts) and his anxiety over performing at FIFTY London concerts by staging his own death.
This may sound absurd but remember his sister Janet is worth 100 million dollars and could easily squirrel him away some place....with the kids to join him later.

American Dreamer, he must be on that secret ranch with Buddy Holly, Elvis and James Dean. Or maybe he went straight to hell.
SNS says:
I was thinking the same thing, and not meaning any disrepect if he is dead, but he could quite easy pull it off.
How many look-alikes does he have, who he pays (paid) to be him during public events? A lot!!
It really wouldnt surprise me if it was all fake, and he has done this to live it up in peace in an eastern country.
But I at least hope those kids will not get a normal life (without masks) and a sense of reality, and not grow up to be as mentally disturbed as he was.
TMM says:
I hope and wish that to be true. I hope he is alive and well, hiding out somewhere waiting to be reunited with his children.
After all the crap that the media and the public have put him through. Can you blame him for wanting to do such a thing?
I think it is time for the nastiness to end. We are all forgetting, that at the end of the day this was a human being not a side show act. Why don't we just let him rest in peace now and show some respect for this family.
Remember, our time will come too.
