New York: Homophobic mother says "no" to children's birthday party due to gay dads


Radio station K-98.3 hosts Steve and Leeana have shared what they say is a response from a Long Island mother to a seven-year old girl’s birthday party invitation sent by her two gay dads as a opportunity to showcase her homophobia.

“You’re invited to Sophia’s 7th Birthday Party,” the invitation reads.

And the response:

“Tommy will NOT attend,” the mother wrote on the invitation. “I do not believe in what you do and will not subject my innocent son to your ‘lifestyle.’”

“I’m sorry Sophia has to grow up this way. If you have an issue or need to speak to me call *** ****,” Tommy’s mother, Beth, wrote.

K-83 writes on Facebook the gay dads passed the invitation on to the station, and that Beth “gave us permission to post her phone number and said anyone who has a problem with what she wrote can call her, too!”

UPDATE: The radio hosts have now copped to making the story up.  Details here.
