In this episode we discuss the similarities and differences between the grooming of a child for sexual abuse and the grooming for a child who is the victim of human trafficking. Many people often collapse the two issues - again in order to put the issue at arm's length and keep it away from them and their family. However, there are similarities and big differences, and this episode clearly delineates those for the listener so that it is clear that child sexual abuse and human trafficking are both horrible fates for a child and they are also very different situations.
