Janet Jackson Reflects on Motherhood and Son Eissa

In a recent interview with The Guardian, Janet Jackson expressed that becoming a mother to her son Eissa Al Mana, born in January 2017, has been the most significant achievement of her life, bringing a 'beautiful impact' to her existence. Jackson, who initially desired to have three children, decided to stop at one to ensure she could fully dedicate herself to Eissa, emphasizing the importance of allowing him to enjoy his childhood without the pressures she faced. She reflected on her parenting approach, acknowledging differences from her own upbringing and stating that her experiences have influenced her desire to provide a more carefree childhood for Eissa. Jackson also mentioned that she has not employed a nanny since Eissa's birth, managing her responsibilities as a working mother herself. Despite her celebrity status, she aims to keep Eissa out of the public eye to allow him a normal childhood, asserting he will not be pushed into the entertainment industry. This protective stance comes after her own challenging experience growing up in a famous family, making her cautious about sharing details of their lives.
