Hi AY Family,

DISCLAIMER: I know about the different stages of sexual grooming from personal experience. Sexual grooming is not only happening in the Sunday Christian churches, but it's also happening in the Seventh-day Adventist churches.

The third stage of sexual grooming is isolating the victim.

     Isolating the victim in and of itself is already a red flag because that is where inappropriate behavior happens.

     Whether the situation is happening publicly or privately, if a teen or adult is isolating and hanging around the victim, there should be an adult present so that the perpetrator can be held accountable and the adult can prevent them from doing what they were about to do to the victim.

Sincerely,

Samuel Reid
