UPDATE

Ben's mother phoned tonight. She sounded very stressed and concerned. I think because she does not want her son dating, at least not yet. Sb doesn't see this as a date, and neither do I. Afterall, neither one of them has their drivers license, so his parents will have to drive them.

I think I was able to alleviate some of the mother's stress by telling her Sb only wanted to go as friends. We talked for a bit. She asked if I had other children, had we done this before, etc. She told me she had one other son and he only went to dances his junior and senior year. There was a lot of sighing as we spoke, but by the end I think we both felt better. This will be interesting to meet the parents on Saturday.
