discuss Grooming a minor to start dating when he or she turns 18. Is it wrong or bad?

[King Belieal]

Some adults fall in love with people that are under 18 years of age. It is unlawful for a adult to date anyone within that age bracket. What those adults do is to groom those minors till they turn 18. After they turn 18, they can legally be in a romantic relationship with those previous minors.

Do you think that grooming a minor so you can date them at adulthood is unethical?

I believe that is unethical. If you are grooming a child to turn adult so that you can just marry her will make you a pedophile. That's because you are already sexually attracted and waiting for few years to consummate.

I alao believe it’s wrong. Grooming a minor, even with the intention to date them at 18, is manipulative and unethical. It creates an unhealthy power dynamic and can emotionally harm the minor, regardless of legality later.

Wrong, and you are a pedo in my book.

I can't even look at an under 18 twice. They barely know their left from their right. Even the 19 year old would be quite difficult for me to date, that's because they are yet to be mature. I think grooming an under 18 is wrong. Such a man is already distracting her from being focused and she needs that focus more at that stage of her life.

I think it's very unethical.

I think the adult has feelings for the minor that inappropriate.

If I was the dad of the minor, I probably wouldn't be so friendly about it. But then again, I have a stepdaughter, and I was in her life from the time she was 12 to now (she's 19 now) and I look at her like she's, my daughter. I'd be kicking some ass over that one.

It is highly problematic to groom a minor for a future romantic relationship because it has a lot of disadvantages. I have a daughter and I can't see myself grooming her for a future relationship. It doesn't even sound well

 

[NatureFreak]

A pedo is a pedo no matter how we look at it. Grooming an underage with the idea of going into a relationship with them when they become adult is simply pedophilic. Some people should learn to learn the kids alone.

 

[King Belieal]

People should understand that kids are kids regardless of anything. They should be allowed to enjoy their childhood. Grooming a minor for a relationship in the future is wrong in every standard. People don't have to see kids as attractive enough for sexual relationship now or in the future.

It is only a pervert that sees a minor and falls in love with him or her. It is completely unacceptable. And I think such kinds of practices like grooming a minor should be outlawed and criminalized. It is a precursor to statutory rape.
