Unfortunately, he was no different to other people that didn't have a normal childhood, plus his father was not a nice man. Also, to be honest, I wouldn't want to have 8 siblings in a two-bedroom house. That's what they experienced. Horrible. As he himself said, when speaking for himself, his childhood was taken away from him. I would never defend Michael Jacksons wrongdoing, because he did horrible things, but I don't think he understood the difference between right and wrong. He was like a kid. He had, from a very young age, people around him encouraging him to do things that aren't normal (drugs, etc.)
