This is starting to irritate me. The increasingly creepy Johnny Trav and his creepy wife Kelly Preston are reportedly trying for a third child, while allegedly refusing to seek proper treatment for their son Jett, who is autistic. Travolta and hag are Scientologists, which consider an autistic person to be "degraded" and needing to commit themselves more to the teachings of Xenu or some bullshit. What an asshole. What an asshole religion. Your kid's gonna sit there and suffer without treatment and therapy which he could benefit from because YOU'RE crazy? That's heartwarming. I hope your jet crashes and your children are the only survivors and inherit all the millions you were going to give to your charlatan religion. I'll dismount from my soapbox now.
John Travolta, 53, and his wife, Kelly Preston, 44, just announced they want to try for their third child - even while they fall under increasing pressure to publicly acknowledge the disability of their son, Jett.Travolta has either pretended there is nothing wrong with Jett, 15, or claimed his condition is Kawasaki syndrome, a disease characterized by high fever, skin rash and swelling of the lymph nodes.
Keep reading for more facts that will make you angry or wish for more Lohan stories.
One magazine editor who has interviewed Travolta more than once says that the star's son is disabled - and yet he continues to behave as if nothing is wrong."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," the editor said.
He'd better step up! We can live with you not being able to come out of the closet, yet hitting up every guy in every gym steam room in every city you shoot a movie in. But let's not abuse the kids, shall we? For more information about autism and to help the search for the cure, go here. Yeah, yeah, I'm not always bitchy.
Erin says:
You tell it, J. Harvey - I completely agree with you!
Clarisse says:
Does that fact that they are filthy rich actors make them immune to the laws the rest of us live by? Shouldn't someone be looking into neglect/endangerment charges?
Come on now!!
These two have as much right to keep Jett as that trampy British chick does to keep poor little Harvey.
Jade says:
Clarisse- Don't even compare Katie and Peter Price to the Travolta's. If you've ever watched their show, you'd see how they are with Harvey AND not to mention they are NOT scientologist's. They TREAT their child's illness, not pretend it doesn't exist. Get a clue.
Zekers says:
...and at 44 she has no fear that the child they conceive may have issues as well?
Clarisse, I know, it is wrong but the fact that they are filthy rich does protect their 'right' to be abusive nutbags...I'm sure the Travolta clan is surrounded by top-notch legal representation that few would want to tangle with.
Clarisse says:
Jade, chill yourself out.
That tramp let her disabled child boil himself, let him dice himself up and giggles when he tells people to f-off. If that is your idea of good mothering, good on you, but i disagree.
Marissa says:
I had Kawasaki's disease as a child. It is nothing like autism. It is treatable and the only long-term side effects (which are very rare) are a weakened immune system and higher risk of heart attack. It doesn't impair social functioning or mental ability. What an idiot. Poor kid!
Jade says:
First of all, I'm chill. But thanks for your suggestion. The tub incident was an accident, it happens to all parents and children. And since he is disabled, his behavior is totally different than that of an average child w/o a mental disabilty. Have you been around disabled children? They are very inquisitive and have a mind of their own and they do not know what is right/wrong/and do NOT understand the circumstances or consequences of their actions. Also, we are talking about two different disabilities here: Autism (what Jett has), and Septo-optic dysplasia (what harvey has). =)
Trixie says:
Beautiful rant!!!
shell says:
These two are such transparent fools. They obviously want another child b/c they see how much attention it brings (Tom Cruise?). Dumbasses.
Clarisse says:
Jade,
"They are very inquisitive and have a mind of their own and they do not know what is right/wrong/and do NOT understand the circumstances.." which is why they should not have had to opportunity to crash into mirrors or scald themselves. In my opinion, that was neglect on the parents part.
Also, I am aware of the differences in the two disabilities, I was not comparing them. I was comparing the worthlessness of the parents involved.
Shell,
Interesting POV. That hadn't even occured to me.
dezboy says:
Okay. Just so I'm clear on the rules...we're forbidden to make fun of people who stuff their faces until they get so obese they can barely walk, but it's just fine to wish plane crash deaths on weirdo Scientologists? I have no problem with the latter. It's the first part that confuses me.
finnsmom says:
at 44 she's trying for another kid? doesn't that seem a bit selfish? i'd rather see her pull an angelina/madonna and adopt before bringing another child into this world who would possibly be "degraded". what a horrible label to place on a child. shame, shame, shame.
Zekers says:
Right on Finnsmom!
Jade says:
Clarisse,
Since you're aware of the differences of the 2, then you know Harvey is blind as a result of the disability. One quick glance away and anything could happen. It's absolutely impossible to have a set of eyes on the poor kid all hours of the day although it'd be great. Unfortunately, a lot of accidents happen as a result of a child with a disability. It's hard being a parent but it's 10x harder being one of mentally/physically disabled child.
Now, as far as those 2 having another bundle of joy for publicity....that's right on. Travolta's in Hairspray now (LMAO!), and everyone is just itching to have him slip so he can be "outed". Having another little one would be another "attempt" by the Scientologist's to shoo away the gay rumors.

DAMN well said, J.Harv!!
debop says:
Nothing to say of them having a "3rd" child? Would'nt it be their fourth?!?!
amber says:
I heard his interview on E and all he could talk about was how he wanted to add another prince or princess to go along with his little princess he has now. He talked as if Jett didnt exsist.
As a parent of a chld with autism, it saddens me to think of how much they could have done to make that boy have some kind of a normal life. they have money to afford testing that families like mine have to save money for months to be able to do. Every spare penny we have goes to add more therapy to ensure that we are fighting autism with the best fight we can. I wish they would see the error in their ways and do the same for Jett.

You can't protect a child from their parents. No matter who they are.
