She agreed to sell drugs for him at her school when he promised to increase her allowance from R5 000 to R7 000, the Daily Sun reports.

A study by Ideas24 found that it is hard for young women, particularly those who are socio-economically disadvantaged, to say no to the immediate benefits sugar daddies provide.

The lady moved out of home and life was great until she fell pregnant at the age of 21 and her sugar daddy was against abortion. However, in a strange turn of events, he had no intentions of being a present father.

“The man disappeared. When I called him, his phone was off and I thought he maybe changed his numbers,” she said.

He stopped sending her money and paying her rent. She was forced to move back home.
