So that wasn’t the case. The ONLY rational explanation for sexualising prepubescent kids would be from grooming, yet the story doesn’t involve that. Why on earth is the author doing it, then? Also, with words no non-groomed kid would be saying seriously, like “vagina” and “areola”. At the same time saying “stoppy-starty”, the combination of words make no sense aside from grooming.

At least this now describes the random sexual things that Bridgett talks about - her parents are sexual degens with no boundaries and a lack of parenting that are exposing their own child to it.

Nicely written (though writing like a child gives incredible leniency in what counts as skillful), but WTF is page 77? She’s heavily young and the author decided to mention talking about sex. Why is this in the book? Not even 10 pages before this, she was a very young child who’s nowhere near being a preteen - which you shouldn’t sexualise them in a book, either. It’s all heavily creepy. At least delay THAT.
