JERMAINE Jackson says his superstar brother, Michael, is a strict parent - like their controversial father, Joseph.
"Michael is not one of those fathers that lets them do what they want and give(s) them everything they want," Jackson said.
"He is raising them the way he was raised. I think it's great because he wants them to be good people."
Michael Jackson has spoken of fearing his father's abusive ways as a child, but said he still loved him.
In a candid interview with the Sunday Herald Sun, Jermaine Jackon revealed:
DETAILS of a Jackson 5 reunion.
MICHAEL'S molestation accusations in 1993 and 2004 were a "conspiracy".
JOSEPH'S strict ways were for the good of the family.
Jackson rejected perceptions of Michael's so-called eccentric behaviour.
"They (the media) say, '***** *****'. But he is a human being. He has children. They hear this and they hurt," he said.
Jackson said an incident where his brother appeared to dangle his son from a balcony was misconstrued.
"Michael was excited. He was showing fans his child. He wasn't tossing his baby over the rails. He loves his kids," he said.
He said Michael's children, Prince Michael I, aged 11, Paris, 10, and Prince Michael II, also known as Blanket, 5, were "wonderful".
"Prince is funny. He makes jokes. Paris is like a tomboy, but still a little lady. Blanket is adorable, cuddly and sweet," he said.
Jackson said the family supergroup, the Jackson 5, was in talks about recording and touring.
He hoped a planned tour would include Michael, superstar sister Janet, Tito's sons, R&B group 3T, and Jackie's son, rapper Dealz.
