One definition of grooming is to train someone for a particular purpose or cause. Niamh was grooming Ross to be her little minion on the internet, defend her to no end, attack everyone who had a negative word to say about her, promoting her pornography as a CHILD, etc etc.
She did this by offering friendship to a lonely isolated child with issues at home. She gave him money and a platform to build his own following online. Grooming 101 if you ask me.
People act as if sexual grooming is the only form of grooming out there and that a straight woman by that nature can’t groom a gay child. Incorrect and dangerous opinions to have. It is actually far too common than grown women target little gay boys to do their bidding.
Please look into the Colleen Ballinger allegations and tell me that what she did to Adam McIntyre (from the ages of 12-17) was not grooming.
