Statistically, more fathers kill their children than mothers.
Incorrect. Do not confuse STEP fathers with fathers.
Good point... 'New Lion' in the pride kills off offspring of the former "Lion".... "Noble Lioness" stands by and lets it happen... or helps....
I'm trying to limit this area of open warfare between men and women to Australia - and current figures show that women are leading..... step-fathers of any ilk are not natural fathers... mothers are natural mothers.....
The fact that children are far too often placed in that situation raises questions about our current society, and how it is being handled.
I think your Canadian link is about abuse/neglect primarily, Mothra - I would prefer that we address the issues here and not there - perhaps once we find some answers, we can relay them to Canada.
You're back to blaming women again Grap.
My Canadian link was about filicide. It supports all the other links i've read.
When fathers kill their children, it is usually to seek revenge on the mother. Women who kill were more likely to do it because they were killing themselves and didn't want to leave the kids behind.
Neglect cases are almost always the mother, or both parents.
You are too quick to jump on the 'blaming the women' bandwagon... what part of 'new lion does and lioness does not interfere' - which is what happens with lions in nature - is blaming the woman exclusively?
And this is diverting from the reality that natural fathers rarely kill or abuse their natural children. There is just as much a connection between father and child as there is between mother and child - and in the cases where a father finds out he is not the real father, often years later, mostly they say:- "Well, he/she is still my son/daughter.. always has been... but the woman has got to go". Then the pain and the fun starts, because the principal caregiver, the betrayer, has front running.
Perhaps some women need to take a good look at themselves.. as do the legislators and courts.... before they start heaping pain upon pain for the innocent....
