>>12713759Using the puppies metaphor, you could say that groomers exist because of young people missing father/mother figures and picking up strangers to fill in that role by having them indicate them how to live, how to dress, who to meet up with and who not to.
It might just be a 40 year old pervert who's taking up that role, but for many people who become the "groomed", it's the only person whom they think cares for them and consistently spends time together with them.
