All one Kansas City area mom did was let her 5-year-old son be what he wanted to be for Halloween.
Didn’t matter, she thought, that it was Daphne, of “Scooby-Doo” fame. He’d already dressed as the snack-eating dog a couple of years back.
So he’d be a girl for Halloween. That’s cute. Everyone would think it was cute. Surely no one would be cruel or make fun, not on Halloween. Or so she thought.
More than a week after he showed up at his church preschool in full costume and got a chilly reception from some of the moms, his own mom’s blog about the reaction has exploded on the Internet. And his mom, who says she’s a cop’s wife on her “Nerdy Apple Bottom” blog, is a hotly sought talk-show booking. She’s already done a phone interview with “The Today Show” and is scheduled to be on the show again this morning.
“My son is gay,” (http://nerdyapplebottom.com/2010/11/02/my-son-is-gay/) read the headline of her blog post. Below that was a picture of her smiling son, sporting the orange wig, pink dress and purple tights of his Daphne costume.
But you can’t read the headline about being gay without going further.




But you can’t read the headline about being gay without going further.


“Or he’s not. I don’t care. He is still my son,” she wrote. “And he is 5. And I am his mother. And if you have a problem with anything mentioned above, I don’t want to know you.”


She goes on to describe Halloween at preschool when she and her son walked in and two mothers “went wide-eyed and made faces as if they smelled decomp.”


The cop’s wife went on to say that one of the moms said in disgust: “Did he ask to be that?”


“I say that he sure did as Halloween is the time of year that you can be whatever it is that you want to be,” she wrote.


Another mom wanted to know whether she tried to talk him out of it.


Nerdy Apple Bottom went on to explain on her blog: “If you think that me allowing my son to be a female character for Halloween is somehow going to ‘make’ him gay then you are an idiot. … I am not worried that your son will grow up to be an actual ninja so back off.”


Since the blog went viral, many experts have weighed in. Some in support, others not.


Grace Ketterman, a longtime Kansas City child psychiatrist, was troubled by the controversy. Her greater concern, she said, was not the boy dressing up as a girl, but dressing up as a teenager.


“In my opinion it is a mistake to allow children to act out beyond their years,” said Ketterman, citing a book called “The Hurried Child,” published in 1981 by child psychologist David Elkind.


“It’s troubling because children who are ‘hurried’ are thrust into situations or behaviors about 10 years beyond their own years. Children who act older than they really are rarely do it just one time.


“They can begin to do it habitually, and then they are thrust into trying to grow up too soon.”


Karen Harrison, a Kansas City certified sex therapist, said there may be two reasons for the apparent negative reaction of some parents to the boy’s costume.


“People may think that the parents are encouraging the son to act out,” Harrison said.


“Others may see the parents allowing the child to be flexible in experimenting with different gender roles. Some parents may not find that appropriate.”


On her Twitter account in recent days, the Kansas City area mom reiterated her purpose: “The message is unconditional love and tolerance. That is the point I’m making.”


By Sunday night, there were more than 39,000 comments on the “My son is gay” blog post, and hundreds more on some of her other postings.


A sampling of some of the comments shows that a few commenters criticized, one or two wanted the family to trick-or-treat at their house and the majority wanted to tell the mom she’s the greatest.


“I have to say that your attitude and the way in which you are able to express it help shore up my faith in the hope for the continued evolution and refinement of the human condition,” one person wrote. “In short, you rock and I love that there are people like you.”


Another added: “Your kids are lucky to have you as a mother. I hope that all this positive feedback makes you proud, and from all over the world! All we as mothers can do is support our children in everything they do, in who they are and in who they become.”


And a third was succinct. “Best. Daphne. Ever!”


As with many of her blogs on motherhood, she plopped a sort of exclamation point at the end:


“And my little man worked that costume like no other,” Nerdy Apple Bottom wrote. “He rocked that wig, and I wouldn’t want it any other way.”

It's a photo of a beaming child on Halloween - delighted to be dressed as Daphne from the cartoon "Scooby Doo"
But underneath the orange wig, is a little boy nicknamed "Boo".
His mom Sarah created a stir online with her blog about Boo's Halloween outfit and the negative reaction she received from some other moms.
Sarah wrote, "If you think that me allowing my son to be a female character for Halloween is somehow going to 'make' him gay then you are an idiot..... I am not worried that your son will grow up to be an actual ninja so back off."
Experts say- regardless of the behavior- at 5, it's way too early to determine a child's future sexual orientation.
"Every child has tendencies and feelings and inclinations so if that is what is leading him to dress this way, okay but i would be hesitant to say that is going to be his declared sexuality," said Dr. Charles Sophy.
It's a topic that's getting a lot of attention. people magazine recently featured Seattle mom Cheryl Kilodavis and her book "My Princess Boy" about her now 5-year-old son Dyson's love of all things pink and girlie.
"Well Dyson was almost 2 when he started having a unique eye for everything beautifu," said Kilodavis.
His parents' goal now: to increase awareness and understanding for little boys who like pretty things.

Mum sparks debate after posting pic of son, 5, dressed as female character


A woman has sparked a child welfare debate after she posted a picture of her five-year-old son dressed as Daphne from Scooby Doo on the Internet.
The debate, on the ethics of parents posting pictures of their own children on the Internet, started after the woman, 35, who calls herself Cop's Wife on her forum Nerdy Apple Bottom, defended her actions on her blog.
"IT IS NOT OK TO BULLY. Even if you wrap it up in a bow and call it 'concern'. Those women were trying to bully me. And my son," the Daily Mail quoted her as saying.
"If you think that me allowing my son to be a female character for Halloween is somehow going to 'make' him gay then you are an idiot.
"Firstly, what a ridiculous concept. Secondly, if my son is gay, OK. I will love him no less. Thirdly, I am not worried that your son will grow up to be an actual ninja so back off," she added.
Since posting the rant her intended message of tolerance has gone viral around the Internet and flooded her small blog site with messages of support.
But others have criticised it saying that the picture will come back to haunt her son someday, especially since she has posted it online.
Child welfare group Kidscape, whilst supporting the child's right to wear whatever he likes and grow up along any line of orientation he so chooses, said it set a "troubling and disturbing" precedent.
"I think the parent needs to wake up and remove the image straight away," Claude Knights, director of Kidscape, stated.
"A child dressing in a costume like that doesn't worry me at all, children have to be free to explore, but what does worry me is that there seems to be an adult agenda here. And that's troubling and disturbing," he
added. (ANI)

“My Son Is Gay.”

http://blogs.babble.com/strollerderby/2010/11/04/my-son-is-gay/

If you think that me allowing my son to be a female character for Halloween is somehow going to ‘make’ him gay then you are an idiot. Firstly, what a ridiculous concept. Secondly, if my son is gay, OK. I will love him no less. Thirdly, I am not worried that your son will grow up to be an actual ninja so back off.



Cop’s Wife, who blogs at Nerdy Apple Bottom, has written a post called “My Son Is Gay.”
First line? “Or he’s not.”
Whatever he is, she doesn’t care. The kid is 5. It’s nobody’s business.
It’s especially not the business of the moms who, at her son’s preschool, cornered her and criticized her for letting him go as Daphne from Scooby Doo (http://nerdyapplebottom.com/2010/11/02/my-son-is-gay/) for Halloween. First, several moms failed to hide their shock and dismay in front of the boy — who feared that morning that he was going to get laughed at. (Funny thing, he thought the criticism was going to come from other kids!).
Next, the moms lectured Cop’s Wife about how she shouldn’t — and can’t — let her son dress up like a girl in the future. It’s bad enough that she allowed it to happen in pre-school.
The underlying worry, of course, is that she’s allowing him to be or turn out gay without putting up any kind of fight. Cop’s Wife says, so what. What is there to fight? She writes:

If you think that me allowing my son to be a female character for Halloween is somehow going to ‘make’ him gay then you are an idiot. Firstly, what a ridiculous concept. Secondly, if my son is gay, OK. I will love him no less. Thirdly, I am not worried that your son will grow up to be an actual ninja so back off.
She points out that no one cares if girls go as Batman. Or wear overalls. Or role play the father. But if a boy goes as Daphne, likes tights and insists on acting like a girl, it gets attention. Brings up questions. Provokes concern (or “concern”).
What’s especially sad is that her son, at 5, knew there’d be trouble if he dressed like a girl. But why, why we have to ask, is that trouble coming from adults? From the other mothers?
If moms aren’t OK with allowing kids to be who they are — whether that’s gay or straight-but-Daphne-loving — what are the chances their kids will be? If moms can stand in front of a boy in his costume, mouths agape and fingers wagging and judgment-o-meters off the charts, what makes us think their kids won’t? Because they will.
And then what? More bullying? More school dropouts? More depression? More suicides?
A 5-year-old shouldn’t have to be brave for Halloween, Cop’s Wife writes. And it’s true. A 5-year-old should only be worried about maximizing candy intake — not how his costume bothers his friends’ moms.
Also, Cop’s Wife? Her son? They’re awesome.

When I was a kid at 5 dressed up for Halloween as a girl and then 2 more times in my childhood... I dont see anything wrong with it. My father I think had a major issue with it when I wanted to be a girl a 3rd time but in the end I grew up healthy and loving person. I dont see what is wrong with a kid expressing themselves in one way or another. Kids dont know gender and have luv for everyone at a young age. Its when they hit puberty that their innocence is left behind.... Kids are Kids, they should be happy and express themselves the way they want!!!

[natina]

you grew up to be a TS/tg and AND THATS WHAT THE PUBLIC IS AFRAID OF
