Katherine Jackson Plays Pictionary With Grandkids

Jackson FamilyKATHERINE Jackson loves playing Pictionary with her grandkids.

The mother of late pop singer Michael Jackson is a huge fan of board games and regularly gathers the family for a few rounds of the quick fire word guessing game.

“Her favorite thing as a grandma is for everyone to come over and play games; especially Pictionary,” said Michael’s older sister Rebbie. “Everyone gets involved and we all act silly. She’s a mother every day and she always supports the kids.”

After Michael’s shock passing last June, 79-year-old Katherine was made the legal guardian of the Thriller singer’s three children, Prince Michael, 13, Paris, 11, and eight-year-old Prince Michael II, who is known as ‘Blanket’.

Rebbie also revealed in the nine months since Michael’s death the family have pulled together and are “hanging in there” as they come to terms with his death.

“We’re just trying to be a family and get ourselves through all of it — it has been so much,” she said. “I’m just trying to stay positive.”

Rebbie spoke of her pride at Michael being honored with the 2010 Angel Award by the Children Uniting Nations charity for his work to help disadvantaged youngsters around the world.

Speaking at the announcement of the prize — at a fund-raising event which took place on March 13 at the Beverly Hilton hotel in Los Angeles — Rebbie said, “I got very emotional afterward. Michael was very passionate about children and supporting their causes.

“Boy he would have loved this.”

    Katherine just because you know Jehovah and you know how he feels about us loving one another does not mean that you have to take on your kids responsibility. You took good care of your husband which he did not appreciate, you took good care of your children all under Jehovah’s word which obviously they did not appreciate or else they wouldn’t be hanging around like monkeys. You have a responsibity towards Michael’s kids and he left you money to do that so do that. You cannot support all of those children your son got when choosing to ruin their lives and the lives of their children all sitting waiting to live off of Michael’s money.

    Michael was the star in that family. They all benefitted from much from his popularity over the years. Apparently they were all living off of him, it is time for all of them to let go. If they keep on at this rate, then his children may have very little in the future to live off on.
