They’re a family of two fathers and one daughter. Until recently, they had lived a quiet life in an upper-class neighborhood in the Mexican city of Monterrey. But they’re now at the center of a national gay rights debate in Mexico.

Their 2-year-old daughter, the couple says, was expelled from a private school in Monterrey for having two fathers.

Alex and Pepe were married in Mexico City, where same-sex marriage is legally sanctioned. They asked CNN not to make their last names public to protect their daughter’s identity.

Alex, a 28-year-old who works in marketing and sales, is the girl’s biological father. Pepe is a 39-year-old broker with a degree from the University of Miami.

The couple says an administrator at The Hills Institute, which also has a daycare facility, told them they would have to hide the fact that they’re a same-sex couple if they wanted the girl to stay at their school.
