  Aug 18, 202613 min

  Spotting Grooming: Predatory Behavior and Red Flags Host Andy Murphy discusses how parents can recognize grooming by understanding common predatory patterns and red flags. He highlights a Kentucky case involving a middle school teacher arrested under a new anti-grooming law (House Bill 4), which targets manipulation, trust-building, secrecy, and boundary violations before abuse escalates. Andy explains six typical grooming stages and what behaviors to look for. He advises parents to raise confident kids, watch for private communication and repeated boundary violations, talk with children with compassion, and teach "good secret vs. bad secret," including vigilance about online contact.
