He wasn't necessarily mean. He was just raising his kids the way he was raised.

And look what they turned out to be, they all turned out respectable, nice, well behaved, successful, and nice people. Do you think if they had a father who didn't care they would've turned out how they did?

And Michael said that he had become a much nicer person in more recent years.

He raised his children as he was raised. As people are different, some of his children where more sensitive and got extremely sad lives (Michael Jackson). But he wanted only that his children wouldn't work at a steelwork their whole lives for a poor amount of money, however he accomplished it extremely wrong.
