But, living with their black relatives may require some adjustments, especially since the children, who lived a sheltered and nomadic existence with their father, have not spent extensive time with them.
But O'Connor believes the Jackson children will have to make fewer adjustments living with their grandmother than they would with Rowe. Pertman said the Jacksons' class and privilege could buffer them from some of the issues that other African-Americans raising white children might face. They can provide buffers for their kids.
White parents who have adopted children of color also deal with less recrimination. They may draw stares and nosy questions, but it's probably less likely that someone will follow them through a grocery store and ask their children if they are "OK.
That's what happened to Mark Riding, an African-American living in Baltimore who co-parents a pale, freckled-faced red-haired girl named Katie. Riding's mother-in-law Phyllis Smith, also black, took in Katie, now 9, when she was 3 and living in foster care. A child of a local prostitute, Katie had tantrums so awful that she was turned away from 12 homes.
Smith eventually became her legal guardian and Riding, a private school admissions director, and his wife Teri, a human resources executive, became "backup" parents, keeping Katie on weekends and summers and taking her along on family vacations.

So, in reality, Prince, Paris and Blanket are indeed colorless.
Jackson has always stood firm that his children are biologically his. White expressed his opinions during a recent sit down with Vlad TV. White says that other celebrities would not get a pass on creating the same narrative, using the example of comedian Eddie Murphy saying a blond-haired and blue-eyed child is biologically his. According to White, there would be more backlash. Vlad takes things a step further, noting that most of the Jackson clan have biracial children whose appearance validates such.
