Detroit Teachers Moonlight As ‘Sugar Babies’ To Offset Wage Cuts
DETROIT (WWJ) - It’s back-to-school season and many Detroit teachers are struggling in the wake of budget cuts and overcrowded classrooms.
According to the National School Supply and Equipment Association, the average teacher spent at least $485 on school supplies for their classroom last year.
So, what are some Detroit women doing to offset their struggles in the classroom? Well, they’re becoming “sugar babies” of course — seeking financial assistance from wealthy men online.
In the Detroit School District alone, 201 teachers are moonlighting as sugar babies to offset wage cuts and job losses, according to dating website SeekingArrangement.com.
Brandon Wade, the website’s founder and CEO, said the average public school teacher registered on the site is between the ages of 28- and 33-years-old, and asks for approximately $3,000 a month in financial assistance from her sugar daddy.
“You can’t expect a teacher to accept less pay for more work than their peers, and then reach into their pockets to fund your child’s classroom,” Wade said in a statement. “But that’s what’s happening. If those are the expectations and pressures we are putting on our teachers in America, than they can’t possibly be judged for whatever extracurricular activities they choose to pursue to stay afloat.”
While the number of Detroit school teachers registered on the website might be shocking to some, it’s actually less than the national average. Wade said the Philadelphia City School District has the highest number of teachers registered on the website at 674, followed by Miami-Dade School District with 507.
“A successful man wants an educated woman by his side, and for this reason, a young, attractive teacher can be a valuable commodity,” Wade said.
Teachers aren’t the only locals trying to find a sugar daddy online. Wade said a majority of the females registered on his website are college students. Earlier this year, Michigan State University made the website’s list of colleges with the most sugar babies.
In case you were wondering, the website describes a modern sugar daddy as a successful and generous man who is willing to pamper and offer financial help or gifts to a young person in return for friendship and companionship. A “goal seeking sugar baby” is described on the website as a girl who “know(s) you deserve to date someone who will pamper you, empower you, and help you mentally, emotionally and financially.”
Newsflash: Van Halen makes a comeback ... in DETROIT
Probably better at that than teaching....
Some how i dont think that is a detroit teacher but miley will soon star in the after school special
Sorry, but my imagined view of a Detroit school teacher is one of a 300 lb gorilla.
And probably doesn’t look anything like that.
How smart can they be to be a teacher in Detroit to begin with? Smart teachers would move or never gone there to begin with.
Then there is the fact they are so stupid they have to hook for cash...
Just trying to lessen the load of the shocking headline ...
Is it a UNION web site?
Actually that doesn’t say much for the Union now does it?
But I guess some of the ‘Reps’ could double as pimps???
Does a Union ‘House of ill Repute’ work on the seniority method?
I would imagine they are reporting ALL their income to ‘Unka Shugah”
And, in a related story, students in Detroit moonlight as ‘sugar babies’ to enhance their grades...
“Just trying to lessen the load of the shocking headline.”

Yes, it WAS a nice piece of eye candy :)
More work than what peers? Are some teachers in Detroit making significantly more than others?
I have worked in the Oil Industry for 35 years and have never been offered a benefits package like some teachers have.
As for not being judged for "extracurricular activities", what's next, hit men? ...drug dealers?
Sure, you can be judged to be morally fit or not based on what you do in the community on your own time. Teachers are supposed to be role models.
If you don't like your day job, quit.
And that is OBVIOUSLY NOT a detroit teacher.
The union-thug educRATs have always been a bunch of whores.
“Sorry, but my imagined view of a Detroit school teacher is one of a 300 lb gorilla.”
Bad, Alex, Bad, BAD!
Those obese anthropoids are usually students, though the difference is not usually apparent.
Hot for teacher? Pour some sugar on me.
Father forgive them, for they know not what they do.
Twerk it baby
Sugar Baby being a euphemism for whore? Did I get that right?
CLASSY prostitute, one that dines with the client too. Gotta keep that sin CLASSY folks....
