They find no wrong in this freak and there are probably some out there who think that this whole thing is a misunderstanding and a ploy by an evil psychiatrist (who under state law has a duty to report child abuse) and/or bad little boy who is taking advantage of Michael's love for children who wants money.

I suppose. Like I said, I've always given him the benefit of the doubt. I used to love him. I still think he's a musical genius who influenced almost every artist out today. But I can believe all this and still be cautious. I don't understand why parents would risk the emotional and mental well-being of their kids. Just seems like common sense to me.
