John Travolta Ignores Son's Autism

John Travolta and Kelly Preston's oldest son Jett apparently suffers from Autism, a troubling issue for a family who practices Scientology.  According to (what seems like a dubious source) a neighbor and restaurant owner who himself has an Autistic child, Travolta and Preston ignore their eldest son, refuse to let him participate in social events, and neglect to get him any therapy for his Autism.

Here's hoping all the money and fame make celebrity parenting worth the high price of speculation and invasion of privacy most famous parents pay.  I can't imagine any amount of swag is worth all of that.

My knowledge of Scientology is negligible, but I wouldn't be too quick to condemn any parent with autism in the family.  Whether the source is gossip or otherwise, few people can accurately assess the complexities of another family from a few scattered  public crumbs.

Best wishes
