Child abuse ? why ?

[–] Jabril@hexbear.net 11 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Because they are forcing a child into a lifetime job position which they have no understanding of or ability to give informed consent, ripping them away from their family and an ability to have a normal childhood or life

Hmmm. They're ripped away from their families ? do we know how it is experienced by the families ?

Grooming, friendo, its grooming.

Grooming means targeting youth somehow ? I thought it had sexual overtones. Is there a sexual component in the process ? WP's disambiguation page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groom_(disambiguation)#Grooming) lists this : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_grooming

From that article :

Before the term "grooming" was associated with grooming a child for sexual abuse, it had come to have a meaning of mentorship, coaching, or preparing someone for leadership.

This is what you're referring to ?

Correct.
