Pete Singer, executive director of GRACE, shares about grooming, hidden trauma, being "overly" sensitive to abuse, and the importance of third-party investigations.

“Perpetrators put a lot of effort into being the kind of person who would never do that.”

"Being more sensitive may be the product of having more knowledge."
