"The father of Michael Jackson has insisted that the late singer&amp;#039;s three children should remain with his family.  Speaking to reporters yesterday, Joe Jackson claimed that his grandchildren are enjoying spending time with their relatives following the death of their father last week.  &amp;quot;They\u00E2\u20AC\u2122re happy with the kids that they\u00E2\u20AC\u2122re around because we have kids over [at the house]. They\u00E2\u20AC\u2122re small just like they are and some of them are the same age,&amp;quot; he explained. &amp;quot;They were never around other kids, but they\u00E2\u20AC\u2122re happy.&amp;quot; The 80-year-old, whose wife Katherine has been awarded temporary custody of the children by an L.A. court, went on to say that the Jackson family could provide Prince Michael, 12, Paris, 11, and 7-year-old Blanket with the best upbringing. &amp;quot;This is where they belong... We\u00E2\u20AC\u2122re going to take care of them and give them an education that they\u00E2\u20AC\u2122re supposed to have.  &amp;quot;We can do that... We have [a space] large enough to be able to extend to them all the help that they might need.&amp;quot; He added that Debbie Rowe, the mother of the two eldest children, had &amp;quot;nothing to do with what we&amp;#039;re doing&amp;quot;, but admitted that their former nanny Grace Rwaramba could be reinstated.
