In the 1988 film Big, the character Susan takes part in child grooming, when she pursues a relationship with Josh. (lemmy.sdf.org)

It's also implied that she engages in statutory rape.

She's unaware of Josh's real age though, so I don't know the legal or moral implications.

Any questionable acts would happen after the movie's end. My thoughts have always been what the effects were to Susan once she saw he was telling the truth. We don't even really get that short of the look of amazement, and maybe shock on her face.

I'd imagine she would be the one feeling violated here.
