How many times does one have to go through a mock childhood (including sleepovers) to make up for the one you lost? Sorry, this is just like too many guys who will use up a woman until a younger one comes - except here it's little boys. He has more chemistry with them than with ANY woman he's been photographed with.
I grew up with his music too, but reality sets in at some point. These people we idolize ALL have issues and frankly I believe most of them has/do had sex with kids. You can't be famous until you do apparently.
