King Of Pop’s Children Remember Him As Noble Father During His Would Have Been 58th Birthday

Who doesn't have beautiful reminiscences of Michael Jackson being a total performer? Kids, Prince Michael Jackson Jr. and Paris-Michael Katherine Jackson remember him, who would've turned 58 years old last Aug. 29, 2016 as "the man who was more than a legend" and "the man that means more to us than anything and anyone ever could."

The world was stunned, cried and mourned after a shocking news had surfaced about the death of the King of Pop, Michael Jackson. And seven years after, it would have been Jackson's 58 birthday celebration on Aug. 29, 2016. To celebrate the day, King of Pop's first-born son, Prince Michael Jackson Jr., has written a sonnet for his dearly deceased father.

Together with his heartfelt poem, Prince wrote: "Happy birthday to the Man who was more than a legend. I love you." In the poem, he said: 'To many he is a king, to me, a man, all he inspires, to lead a noble cause."

Marie Claire reported that Prince's sister, Paris Jackson reposted the sonnet on Instagram, with the caption: "Love this ... proud of you big brother. And happy birthday to the man that means more to us than anything and anyone ever could."

On being a parent, Michael Jackson said in an interview with the USA Today Magazine in December 2001 that fatherhood has changed him in a huge way. He continued to say: "It's your responsibility to make sure they're taken care of and raised properly with good manners."

"He was the best father anybody could have. He raised us the right way and there is nothing anyone can do to make us forget about him," Prince disclosed via the Express in June 2014. "He was always concerned about humanity. He helped many charities," he added.

Paris Jackson also told the Daily Mail that his dad was an incredible dad and they loved him to death. "He'd try to educate us as much as he could and was always looking out for us. He was very protective," she recalled.

Teddy Riley, American-songwriter and once producer of Jackson's "Dangerous" album, also said something about Jackson's parenting style. He relayed to MTV.com: "He (Michael Jackson) read them a book every day. When we were in Virginia during the Invincible [sessions], there was not one day missed reading the children something. So that showed me right there that he was an incredible father."
