Travolta and Preston: Parents of the Year?
John Travolta and wife Kelly Preston have announced that they want to try for a third child, which as set tongues wagging to the tune of, "Why? They need something new to mistreat?" Rumor has it that John refuses to acknowledge his 15-year-old son Jett’s disability. The New York Post quotes a magazine editor who’s repeatedly interviewed John: "Travolta sits there in interviews talking about how Jett loves to read or play sports, but it is clear that the boy can barely do either." Jett’s problem is reportedly a one-two punch of autism and Scientology, which teaches that any sort of mental illness is curable with enough commitment to the religion.
If this is true: gross, gross, gross. Still, there’s a point that people may be overlooking: maybe Jett’s problem isn’t that he’s autistic. Maybe he’s an alien. You know how Scientology is. [New York Post / Image credit: Getty]
