“How to Spot a Groomer With This 1 Weird Trick”<\/p>\n
The Clinical Steps To Grooming Kids Match Exactly How They\u2019re Being Taught In Schools<\/a><\/p>\n The steps predators take to groom children for sexual abuse bear a remarkable resemblance to some modern lesson plans in American elementary schools, according to descriptions clinical experts provided to the Daily Caller.<\/strong><\/p>\n Proponents of introducing Critical Gender Theory curricula and graphic sexual education to young children in schools have rejected the \u201cgroomer\u201d pejorative critics recently began lobbing at them. Still, the grooming methods that experts outlined for the Caller bear a striking resemblance to some of the newer sexual education lessons the fringe political left is pushing into classrooms.<\/p>\n The most common tactics groomers employ are cultivating a positive reputation within a community, introducing sexualized topics or imagery to kids, isolating them from their parents, and encouraging them to keep secrets, experts told the Daily Caller. Each of these red flags have manifested themselves in classroom policies or public programs for children across America in recent years.<\/p>\n \u201cI can\u2019t think of too many times where I would think that an unrelated person should say, \u2018Don\u2019t say this to your parents,’\u201d Daniel Pollack, professor at the Wurzweiler School of Social Work at Yeshiva University, told the Daily Caller.<\/p>\n \u201c[Parents] should be informed [about sex education], especially the younger kids are,\u201d Chris Newlin, executive director of the National Children\u2019s Advocacy Center, said. \u201cI\u2019m just not a fan of things being held secret from parents, and kids being told not to tell.\u201d<\/p>\n Yet a culture of secrets is exactly what\u2019s cropping up in some schools. The Wisconsin Supreme Court\u00a0ruled earlier this month<\/a>\u00a0that a school could institute a policy in which kids change their gender identity without informing parents. In March, a Texas elementary school\u00a0told 5-year-old kids<\/a>\u00a0not to tell their parents what adults taught during pride week classroom discussions. A new Philadelphia\u00a0policy requires<\/a>\u00a0teachers to hide the transgender status of students from parents.<\/p>\n Examples are international, too: in Canada, one school hosted a \u201cpride dance\u201d<\/a>\u00a0that parents were prohibited from seeing.<\/p>\n The dictionary definition of groomer is \u201cthe criminal activity of becoming friends with a child in order to try to persuade the child to have a sexual relationship,\u201d\u00a0according<\/a>\u00a0to the Cambridge English Dictionary. Some critics of sexualized education for kids and programs like Drag Queen Story Hour allege that kids aren\u2019t only being groomed for potential abuse, but are being mentally groomed into a particular worldview regarding sexuality and gender.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Christopher Rufo, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute who has led a political movement against the teaching of gender ideology in school, as well as other topics, said some educators are undertaking actions that match up well with that definition of grooming.<\/p>\n \u201cMany school districts, including large districts such as Los Angeles Unified, have adopted explicit policies that teachers can facilitate a child\u2019s gender and sexual transition without notifying parents. In fact, the default is to keep these transitions a secret \u2014 the child has to request notification,\u201d Rufo told the Daily Caller. \u201cThis is extremely dangerous and an immense violation of the rights of parents to know what\u2019s happening to their children. It opens up kids to manipulation, indoctrination and abuse.\u201d<\/p>\n
