No idea who this is, but they have a lot to unpack in therapy. 15 year olds don't seduce adults...
I hate to tell you, but you and your grandmother's trauma are valid, and not at all okay. The fact that they are trying to rationalize it tells me they know on some level that what happened wasn't okay. Its a defense mechanism.
The 15 year old seducing adults was probably abused themselves
Yeah, thats kind of the point of my comment.
Well they shouldn't successfully be seducing adults, but some will try.
Back in college at my place of work you'd have the high school freshman customers coming in and hitting on the college guys, pretty hard. Of course it would have been shameful to actually roll with it because what are you, some loser that can't get a real college girl?
Also I recall my classmates in junior high and high school trying to flirt with some of the teachers. And of course you have the "get good grades from the professor" trope for college, which technically are adults but the power dynamic and creepiness is the same.
15 year olds aren't exactly thinking well enough but they certainly have the hormones going.
