Grief Counselor Analyzes Paris Jackson's Eulogy

Grief Counselor David Kessler talked to "The Insider" correspondent Victoria Recano about Paris Jackson's sudden speech at her father's public memorial service.

 

"I think it was wonderful that she gave voice," Kessler said of Paris. "For her to be out front like that, you realize that the love was so real. Her father meant to much so her."

"I just wanted to say, ever since I was born, daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine, and I just wanted to say I love him so much," an emotional Paris said at Tuesday's memorial for Michael Jackson.

Kessler said he believes the kids will be "well taken care of."

  • I think Mr Kessler is absolutely correct, they will be cared for by family and people who love them. Grieving is a very personal thing and even the famous Michael Jacksons children should be allowed to grieve in there own way.

  • It seems odd that the child repeats the same works in a television documentary years prior, as in a rehearsed mantra. Reporters visiting the kids in the timespan in between report and the death of MJ - the girl says the same words again.

    Kids can...
