Shit I just realized that too. But what if we look it in a way that she just wants to protect the child till the fl Diana shows up and cures his curse. Right now, she doesn’t seem to have romantic feelings towards him and instead is just trying to support him as much as she can. Ancia’s thought process consists of her helping Blake abs then leaving once Diana shows up so once the ml grows up, of course he’s not gonna let Ancia leave and that’s when I’m guessing she’ll begin to see him as a man and develop feelings. I forgot how old Ancia originally is but yep I also get your point.
Dude, she's just trying to look after him till he grows up before she sends him off with the FL Diana. She just said like either last chapter or the one before that she's going to have to leave and that she was lying when she said she wouldn't leave. They're already married, she's using that to get him to open up so she can help him because in the original story his life after the character she was possessing died was terrible. She plans to stop his dad from dying too.
yes she has good intentions. for me it cant change the fact that she WILL fall in love with a boy who she treated as a child for idfk how many years. im gonna be conflicted if someone falls in love with an adult (who has the body of a child) who has taken care of them since they were a child. it just doesnt sound right ykk?? this is why i feel like authors should jus put people in bodies correlating to their actual age -n-
I think you misunderstood the true meaning of child grooming. So let me give you an example of grooming.
-giving gifts or special attention to a child or young person, or their parent or carer, making the child or young person feel special and/or indebted to an adult.
-making close physical contact sexual, such as inappropriate tickling and wrestling/play fighting.
-openly or pretending to accidentally expose the victim to nudity, sexual material and sexual acts (this in itself is classified as child sexual abuse but can also be a precursor to physical sexual assault).
-controlling a child or young person through threats, force or use of authority making the child or young person fearful to report unwanted behaviour.
Just because the MC was inside of a child's body and was taking care of a child who's much younger than him, it doesn't mean that she's grooming the ML. As long as the MC doesn't have an ill intentions towards the ML, or is trying to manipulate him or to sexually abuse him, then there's no grooming happening on this manhwa.
Oh, that's not what i got from your post at all, but that's something to consider. On one hand, she's going to be physically his age and he'll be old enough to consent (hopefully), but in the other hand it'll be the mentality of an older lady falling for a (hopefully) 18 or more yr old that she cared for.
Something I'll say is that their relationship was immediately set to "married couple", so she sorta took care of him under that context.

he just looks like he got some tattoos;-; if anything it looks kinda cool. also i feel conflicted, can this be considered grooming or not ;? i feel like it is. she may be in a childs body; however, she's still an adult if she was old enough to read an 18+ novel ;/ MaN tHIs Is WhY IvE bEEn reLUcTaNT tO rEad thIS WhEn I sAw The cOVeR pAgE AnD thE tiTlE caLLiNg hEr soMeOnes wIFe( ̄へ ̄)
