I've read some idiotic things on here but this takes the cake.

Social norms also say the man pays. I don’t care how old fashion that is I taught my son to always pay when he’s with a girl.

1961 prom called -- it wants its "social norms" back.

NP. But I agree with the PP. Outdated or not

Then you are part of the problem.

If they go as a group, everyone should pay for their own!

If the boy asks the girl to the prom, does he have to pay? What if the girl asks the guy to the prom? Does she still need to pay for the guy? Or does that change? Would he look like an idiot if he doesn't pay for at least his ticket? What if you're binary? Who pays?! Getting complicated.

This is how we’ve handled it. My kid and date go to two different private schools, will go to both proms. Will each pay for all related expenses at their prom.
