About this episode
CW: This episode contains descriptions of sexual assault and grooming. Grooming refers to the process of building trust and emotional bonds with someone, usually a child or young person, with the intention of sexually exploiting them. It is a form of manipulation and abuse that can have long-lasting, harmful effects on the victim's mental and emotional well-being. Grooming can occur in various forms, including online and in-person, and often involves the abuser of gifts, attention, and affection. It is a tactic used by perpetrators to gradually lower the victim's defenses and gain their trust, making it easier for them to exploit them. The harm caused by grooming can lead to feelings of guilt, shame, and self-blame, and can impact the victim's relationships and ability to trust others in the future.
