Mom Pregnant at 17 Made Choice To Drop Out and Miss Prom. Yrs Later, Grown Son Has Surprise
Prom is a magical night for high schoolers that many will never forget.
Some teenagers go above and beyond with their “promposals” to ask their date to the dance. I will never forget how my high school sweetheart asked me.
He decorated my bedroom with balloons and letters spelling out “prom?” and sat on my bed with roses waiting for me to come home. I was so surprised!
One teen decided to take his mom to the dance instead of asking someone else for a very sweet reason.
Joe Moreno wanted to give his mother an unforgettable night because she didn’t get to go to her own prom.
“I have always wanted to take my mother to prom ever since I found out what prom was,” the 18-year-old told Insider.
“My mother had me at the age of 17, (so) she decided to drop out of high school. I decided that I would give my mom the one night she never experienced because of her sacrifice.”
The Corpus Christi, Texas high schooler took his mother to prom on Saturday night, and his pictures have gone viral!
