A high school senior in Charlotte, North Carolina in the US recently took his mother as his special date to prom.

Rayquan Howard, a student at East Mecklenburg High, made the thoughtful gesture because his mother, Rochelle Howard-Moss, missed her own prom when she was in high school about 20 years earlier.

In an interview with a local TV channel, Rayquan said: "She didn't get to go to her prom, so I made it a priority to take her to my prom. It's always been on my heart. I wanted to make it special."

What made his gesture all the more touching is that his mother missed her prom because she was close to giving birth to him and could not risk going out.

Howard-Moss expressed her joy at finally experiencing the prom after so many years.

Awww, so heart melting! What a thoughtful boy Rayquan is.
