I don't think he looked that much different except he went white and had botox and surgeries to stop wrinkles but everyone does that. It is normal. I don't think the nose thing was normal though but I understand it is to do with his father teasing him that made him do it. Also it is impossible to tell how much surgery he or anyone has had by looking at photo's of him/them because lighting, camera angles, make up is always changing. Photo's can be manipulated and airbrushed as well. Sadly Michael didn’t see himself as beautiful.

Because if you do, I don't understand how you could make that comment. As an educator I know that it's difficult to introduce more complex social concepts to children. They don't understand all of the different facets that go into a situation because they don't understand the big picture in the world. They haven't experienced it. If this mother had explained everything about Michael Jackson then this little girls new love for a wonderful performer would have been clouded by confusion about everything that he was about. She wouldn't have remembered the charities that he donated to and all of the good he did, she would have remembered the "bad stuff" because she wouldn't have understood that stuff. She would have understood that he helped people, even very young children understand the concept of helping others, but because she wouldn't understand the "bad stuff" that's what her mind would have been fixated on. Not the good. And as for the plastic surgery, how else is she supposed to explain that kind of thing to her child? She tells her she is beautiful and God made her perfectly, but the new artist that she now idolizes changed the way he looked for some mystery reason. I'm a huge Michael Jackson fan and I understand the different things that happened in his life and I think it doesn't take away from how incredible of an artist he was. I do however think that it is rude to tell a mother that sheltering her child, at this time, from things that she won't fully understand as being "ignorant" is uncalled for. This woman has more concern for the growth and psychological development of her child then whether or not her child understands the whole picture of why Michael Jackson changed his appearance.
