home free (and that goes for all women ages 15 to 50).
It becomes “mommyism” when unlike men, who come under no scrutiny for still producing kids after 40 and 50; women get pummeled on like a bonfire.
I look at it like this.
Unlike many, calculated Janet is the product of a family with multiplied generations of kids, teens and adults who, (unlike most families) aren’t nearly as close as hers are-just like in dysfunction as are all [families].
Regardless the fact that you don’t see Janet posted up on Instagram with all her nieces, nephews, great nieces, nephews, cousins, etc., believe it or not, there are here my dear-a whole wide range of them from 5 to 50.
Their kids, nieces, nephews, cousins, aunties etc., mix and mingle throughout that family in close knit (unpublicized) ways that even yours and my average families don’t (up to and including inclusion of the “halves” side of her family tree as products of the dad having stepped out on the mom-they are even included in this giant Jackson family tree, too). It’s bigger than you think. Bigger than Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, LaToya Jackson, Rebbie Jackson, Tito, Marlon, Jackie, and Randy Jackson. And they all argue, fight, disagree, don’t speak, break-up to make up.
That said, good luck plucking her first-born out of that great, big clan. And there’s no need to worry about Janet. What she can’t do, or not live to see or do, will be done, regardless.
Besides, if the urban legend is that she stuck the first baby somewhere in the family, if she’s ‘too old’ to care for this one, I’m sure this one’s welcome, too, no?
