Paris and Prince are the two eldest children of the late Michael Jackson and his second wife Debbie Rowe.

They have a little brother, known as Blanket, who is now 13 and was born to an unnamed surrogate mother.

Paris's latest Instagram post came days after she hit out a critics on the social networking site, and revealed she has been attending AA meetings.

After sharing an illustration which received hundreds of comments, the teenager replied by telling her followers she doesn't appreciate being criticised for not responding to every single person - especially the 'negative' ones.

Paris also said that she refuses to succumb to the same pressure that her father experienced before his death in 2009 at the age of 50, from cardiac arrest induced by propofol and benzodiazepine intoxication.

In her expletive-laden rant, Paris wrote: 'This is f****** ridiculous. I am expected to literally sit on my a** all day replying to comments people leave me (positive and negative)? I have AA meetings to go to. Family obligations. PERSONAL obligations. 

'It's so f***ing selfish that I am literally attacked on every f***ing thing I post just because people that I DON'T EVEN KNOW aren't getting what they want.

'I don't know any of you. I appreciate the love and support, but the expectations are f***ing ridiculous.'

She added: 'The expectations for my DAD were f***ing ridiculous. He didn't owe you anything, yet he was ripped to shreds DAILY. I will not let that happen to me.' 

In a separate comment, referring to the many celebrities who never reply to any fans, Paris wrote: 'I'm just f**king done with this. way too much extra stress in my life. i'm literally the only person i know that responds to comments in general.
