- More about Online Child Sexual Grooming Discourse
This Element examines technology-assisted grooming of children for sex, online grooming, as an illegal practice of communicative manipulation and discusses how research within forensic linguistics can help counter it. Three features of online grooming discourse are focussed on: groomers' use of manipulation tactics, groomers' abuse of power asymmetries, and children's communication during online grooming. Findings derived from richly contextualised analysis of online grooming discourse can add value to societal efforts to counter online grooming and other forms of online child sexual exploitation and abuse.

This Element examines technology-assisted grooming of children for sex, known as online grooming, as an illegal practice of communicative manipulation. It emphasizes the importance of research within the field of forensic linguistics in countering this issue. The analysis utilizes online grooming datasets of varying sizes and provenance, including those from law enforcement, and employs diverse analytic techniques from discourse analysis. Three key features of online grooming discourse are explored: groomers' use of manipulation tactics, groomers' abuse of power asymmetries, and children's communication during online grooming.
Furthermore, the Element discusses how findings derived from richly contextualized analysis of online grooming discourse can be combined with co-creation projects involving child-safeguarding groups, children, and lived-experience experts to enhance societal efforts to counter online grooming and other forms of online child sexual exploitation and abuse. By leveraging the expertise of forensic linguists and collaborating with diverse stakeholders, we can better understand the dynamics of online grooming and develop effective strategies to protect children from this harmful practice.
