Met the parents!

That was really tacky of Scott's Mom but I'll tell you that every family is different. Scott should have known that you had to pay for your share of the food if that's the way they always have done it. He needs to prepare you for when you're with his family or you could ask him if there's anything you need to know or need to pay for before you go to their get-togethers. As for your ticket to the program, Scott should either pay for all of it or at least half of it. It's not fair that his is free and he's expecting you to pay for yours.

It sounds like Scott and his mother have a close relationship and she may be really critical or jealous of you spending time with her son. Just be on your best behavior with her and count your blessings that she's two hours away!!!! Good Luck!!
