It is a known fact in today’s society that young girls are dating ‘Sugar Daddies’ for material gain.
Some of the perks of dating a ‘Sugar Daddy’ are dining at fancy restaurants and travelling in luxury cars.
School girls who date these older men say they do so to meet the standard of other girls.
Seeing other girls with expensive cellphones, wearing expensive weaves and dressed in designer clothes makes them envious.
Competition and peer pressure to be accepted are two of the most apparent reasons that young girls date ‘Sugar Daddies’.
For some girls, it’s a survival issue because they come from less privileged homes.
It is alleged that some mothers have no concerns about their daughters dating older men.
It’s obvious that when a man provides all your necessities he will expect something in return.
Many ‘Sugar Daddies’ are married or have many girlfriends, which puts these girls and their partners at risk of contracting HIV and sexually transmitted infections.
Some girls also have boyfriends within their own age group.
