career during his adolescentyears.

successful in, therefore avoidchallenges outside their comfortzones and may try to providetheir worth by excelling andover-excelling in one particular area. (BBC News UK, 2009). Performing under Jackson 5 in 1972

Foreclosure (cont) Tend to be rigid and
authoritarian and have difficultycoping with change (Marcia, ascited in Schultz & Schultz, 2009,p. 225). Michael have expressed that he had
difficulty adapting to changes of puberty: voice change, fat nose,acne, weight, etc. It did not help thathis father teased and beat him evenas a child.
Michael was pressured to stay asthe young, successful child star thathe was (Michael Jackson Talks to...Oprah Live , 1993).
It was a very, very, very difficulttime. Because I think every child star suffers through this period becauseyoure not the cute and charmingchild that you were and you start togrow. And they (the public) want tokeep you young forever (duringOprah interview).
