Scott Grossman asked this question about
Fire Shut Up in My Bones:
Does anyone believe that the caress of the narrator's Uncle Paul constitutes an act of abuse given (1) the uncle helped raise the boy and (2) clearly suffered from a profound cognitive disability and (3) never once attempted to groom or touch the boy either before or after the singular touching incident?

all it takes is one time grooming does not have to be involved. I consider it abuse.
