What’s up doc? you know I’m sitting here thinking about my favorite Michael Jackson song Man in the Mirror, in man in the mirror song he talks about how he is trying 2 change wat would he be talking about? The song seems to mean so much more now to me.

thanks

OMG! I wasn’t sure how to feel about the placement of the children, but you’re right, they need to be surrounded by the love of family they’ve always known. My God the media and papparrazzi is totally cynical and will do anything for a pix. I hope Michael’s mother keeps her grandchildren as far away from them as possible, and far away from that damn Joe Jackson!!! I’m sorry but that’s just how I feel. Bless the Jackson family.

Dr. Gabe:
I appreciate your sincere compassion for MJ’s kids. I agree with Ricci, now is not the time to critique, criticize, or malign Michael Jackson. You’re one helluva human being and Doc. And, I am a former UCLA student, you worked very hard to get me in there and your efforts paid off Dr. Crenshaw, because I have recently been accepted into Harvard Law. I hope you get my comments because all of us in CCCP SITE & STP @ UCLA, past and present know of your dedication and hard work on our behalf. Looks like you might need some proof Dr. C! (lol) Just laugh at the “Haters” doc. Or, just have them give your students (or as you refer to us your “Kids”) a call. Whoever the Hater(S) is (are) my name is Marcus Wilhite, graduate of UCLA. And Yes, Dr. Gabe is very much a part of the family! Ask Lena Brown, Kimberly Devillier, Santi, Jessica, Rebecca, along with Lena Brown, Santi, Alfred, and Kimberly, Keisha, Eric Lambkin, and on and on and on! If you try to come for Dr. Gabe, then you will have to go through all of his kids. Dr. Gabe is and has been a behavioral specialist, and not just at UCLA. There are a myriad of ways to teach—get your facts right! This is exactly the kind of junk Michael Jackson hated!—

Dr. Gabriel Crenshaw we appreciate your seeing to it that we get a quality education at UCLA. You help make miracles happen for a lot of us. And now, we’ve got Your “Back!!”

Much Love Dr. Gabe
Marcus Wilhite (Harvard Man)

I’m sorry but how the heck did Extra ever find this guy? I have met Gabriel and he is not now nor has he ever been a professor at UCLA. UCLA does have high standards, you know! Furthermore, this guy needed about ten years to complete a three year doctoral program in psychology at a third tier school and he needed to take the board certification exam several times before he supposedly passed. I’m shocked that the producers at Extra didn’t do their research and tried to find someone far more qualified. Gimme a break!

So many people seem to stress the unfortunatate circumstances or make jokes reguarding life and death of Michael. I am just wondering if these same people will feel the need to point out the negatives or will be “Mr. Funnyman” when it’s your time to mourn your father/brother/son?

If only Dr. Gabe could be allowed to spend some time talking with MJ’s kids, I know he could help them sort through their feelings and come to terms with all the different feelings that they’re probably having. Having spent most of their lives being the children of a living Icon had to have had it’s difficult moments. And now their lives are being compounded by his death. Their father is gone…they are hurt and confused. God Bless them and give them strength.

Those children have such a tough time ahead of them. If the media would leave them alone and let them have their time to grieve..they could adjust well. Dr. Gabe is correct in telling them to hold on to their personal memories and feelings of their father and not let the outside world shade the memory of such a talented,gifted and loving man.

Hey Dr. Gabe,

With all the “advisors” and supposedly concerned others looking out for the best interest of Michael’s children, I think your advise and thoughts would surely benefit them at this time…to bad you cant speak with them directly!.

Dr. Gabe
To touch on the children and their relationship with their father was wonderful! Compared to the news that’s on TV concerning Michael Jackson right now it’s just sad. You took light and shined it in the dark to remind the world that these children are going to need support. The children lost a father and not an icon.

On the other side of the spectrum Dr. Gabe, how would they be able to cope with the lost of a man they seen as their father while the media and other sources are saying he’s not their biological dad, Debbie Rowe is thought to not be the mom and also that Michael Jackson didn’t not officially adopt the children. Other sources also go as far to say that along side the surrugate mother there was a sperm donor.
