NY Mom Writes Anti-Gay Tirade on 7-Year-Old's Birthday Invite

[RandySF]

A mom in Baldwin, New York RSVP'ed to a small child's birthday party invitation with a vile anti-gay screed.

Little Sophia turns 7 in a few weeks, so her two dads decided to throw her a party and invite her friends to celebrate. One of those friends is Tommy, whose mom Beth is apparently a rabid homophobe. She returned the invitation with the following response:

"Tommy will NOT attend. I do not beleive [sic] in what you do and will not subject my innocent son to your 'lifestyle.' I am sorry Sophia has to grow up this way. If you have an issue or need to speak to me: 516-362-1357."

Sophia's dads were understandably furious, so they sent the letter off to local radio station K-98.3, who posted it on Facebook. The station adds that they contacted Beth, who "gave us permission to post her phone number and said anyone who has a problem with what she wrote can call her, too!"

2. I feel bad for Tommy

His mother is a crazy bigot. Poor kid to have to live with all that hate.

4. I believe it is a form of abuse

yes indeed

3. Sophia is lucky.

I just wanted 1 dad, and she has two. Tommy is probably going to need some psychotherapy when he gets older. Something tells me this poor kid is going to have "mommy" issues.

6. I have a feeling Beth will have second thoughts about giving out her phone nbr.

Not normally a real good idea giving it to radio stations, facebook or any other internet presence.
