Janet Jackson is rumored to be eying custody of Michael Jackson's three children.
"Janet is blossoming into a woman with tremendous untapped maternal instincts. The children automatically turn to her for comfort and direction," a source close to the Jackson family told Britain's Grazia magazine.
According to the same source the late King of Pop and Janet Jackson were very close and thus is trusted to take care of the children. In fact, said source believes Janet promised Michael that she would take care of the children if anything should happen.
"When he had health concerns, he had a talk with Janet about how much she meant to him and the children, and how if anything happened to him, he wanted her to make sure the children would be loved and cared for in the same way he was raising them. She told him of course she would."
There is one problem with Jackson taking custody. According to news reports thus far, Katherine Jackson could end up being the legal guardian of the children.
If Jackson, both Michael and Janet's mother, retains custody, the source believes Janet will share in caring for the children -- something the family agrees with.
"The family think this could be a great idea - they are supportive of Katherine, but although she is in good health, she is nearly 80 and they are worried she is not up to the task."
As previously reported on Singersroom, Janet Jackson has returned to work on Tyler Perry's forthcoming flick 'Why Did I Get Married Too'... click here for more on that story.

i think janet will being good mother for the children, they need mother love and i hope janet will be the best mom for them. the way she was talking to the children that make me be very proud of her. she used to love her brother, and they were too close so i think she can treats the way every daddy want her children to be .
janet could handle taking care of the childrens, very well she is a good hearted person and when it first happen i said right of the bat janet should raise the children and theres people trying to discredit janet, well they can try all they want to janet has proved herself over and over again and its about who the children love and from looking at the pictures they was really holding on to aunt janet and llittle blanke , all of them are cute kids but little blanket he just melts my heart, my husband though that blanket was a girl hes so cute with his hair long they are so cute and they are big children and i am sure they are all very smart.
now everybody and their mommas are speaking their minds and telling their part but i want all of you know it alls that you can shut the hell up talking about mrs jacksons age and to hell with the ones of you who thinks that the family only loved michael for his money look dumb asses they loved him from day one he left gary when he was around 11 years of age and all of you sound stupid because you listen to yourself, they love him because of is money well michael was not the only person in that family who has made money and to debunk your lies is right here in front of your eyes look up at the top of this page there she is JANET JACKSON has been on the stage sinse aroung age 7 and is a jackson and shes not asking for nothing and like she said michael to you all is an icon but to us michael is family meaning that through all of the hurt, pain and sorry they are still in love with each other as a family and haters , loosers, and people in general does not understand that.
now as the children grew into griwn ups they was under the stern hand of their father jj who worked them at whiplash speed and they excelled michael was groomed as the lead singer in the group and his brothers played the music , they was very talented and blessed to be that talented, theres families where theres 13 kids in the famiky and all of them together can not carry a damn tune in a paper sack but not the jacksons they had talent and they showed it and all of them loved performing and from looking at pictures of michael he even song with a big smile on his face brooke shields told it best when she stated that she will remember that big old smile that michael, and i am on the outside looking in and i see that all of the jackson has that beautiful smile, mom and dad and all of their children all of the jacksons seems low keyed and laid back family not real loud like i would say my family is, the jacksons are cool.
for all of the talent that the jacksons have , thats priceless, jj and his wife has been through a whole lot in raising their children and thats a prize winning story all in itself, the family has talent and theres some super stars in the families and there was on who passed away and he was a iconoc figure and a legend in his own right, he is loved by the people of the entire world and even though he had to stand up aganist some of the hardest strunity that any other artist has ever had to endure just because of his love for children and people, in his mind he felt that he could get back part of his missed childhood when he came up with the thought to buy netherland and build a theme park and that was his way of helping children, and people who was ,he felt needed a new lease on life .
Any woman who publicly discloses her affinity for coffee enemas, is a woman who definitely deserves to be a mother...raise those kids in truth Janet - not like your wacko brother.
janet is smart, beautiful, has talent, a hard worker, very considerate, and loves her family, and has always been a big portion of the glue that holds the family together, the , being such a large family has gone through their share of ups and downs but what family doesn't, back in the day when these children was all still young it was jj and his wife janets mom who got together and decided to move their family to california and away from the ruff, and hard streets of g/indiana, and that took a lot of doing because theres something in the bible thats called faith, and faith is things that you believe but you can not see faith sarah had faith when she gave birth at a very old age and noah had faith when he built the ark, and people did not believe that the rains was going to come but it did and noahs faith was shown to be right on, in thinking about something that you feel that can be accomplished and you just have to step out on faith .
