MJ: I'll tell you. I thought I was prepared to be a father, but I wasn't. All my life I've read about how wonderful children are. People would go, "What is up with you and babies?" I am always reading child psychology books. But it's so much more joyous than even that. Prince and Paris changed me in so many ways. I learn as much from them as they learn from me. You learn about having a good heart and being a good-spirited person. And the way I am, I try and imitate them. People always say, "Act your age." But I try and act more like children because they are the innocent, they are Godlike, they are pure. I try to be as humble and sweet as they are.

I don't like the things Rabbi Shmuley Boteach said in the past and present about Michael but I did manage to get his new book about Michael "Honoring the Child Spirit" and I must say I'm impressed so far. It's pretty much wonderful to read what Michael thought about children.

If you want to read or skim the book w/o buying it here's the pdf for it: http://www.multiupload.com/U6OMMQLK7G
 
Thanks a lot.

, which is why he tried to make them see the difference between being "child-like" and "child-ish." Some will never learn.

Even with so much drama and pain in his life, he never gave up on the goodness of human nature and I think it's because he appreciated children and saw children living within adults as well.
