Child Grooming

Child Grooming is a deliberate process in which an individual manipulates a child or adolescent into a position of vulnerability and trust for the purpose of future sexual exploitation, distinguished from other forms of abuse by its premeditated, relational, and instrumental nature aimed at lowering resistance through emotional, psychological, or social manipulation.
