ANALYSIS: The differences between men and women who kill their children

Filicide is the murder of a child by a parent. Despite making up about

of all domestic homicides each year, precise data on the characteristics of filicide are difficult to establish due to the smaller numbers and varied cases.in Australia documented 238 cases between 2000 and 2012. This study mirrored trends elsewhere, with male and female perpetrators represented in roughly equal numbers.

Common precursors to filicide included a history of domestic and family violence, parental separation and mental illness.on this latest case involving Katie Perinovic have been quick to criticise what is perceived as more sympathetic media coverage of women who kill their children. And for some, the fact women and men commit filicide in roughly equal numbers suggests that family violence has no gender.

But filicide is a relative outlier as a form of violence committed by women in relatively equal numbers to men.

ItaButtrose does this story need an update?

Tediously predictable feminist take; Men do it because men are bad. Women do it because society has let them down. They apply this formula to everything. It's a dopey cult.

When the central tenant of your ideology is 'Men bad, Women good' anything you have to say about these matters has zero credibility ...as impartial as an article about evolution written by a Christian fundamentalist. woke wokecult

gavmorris , theirABC really have no shame do they. You should check out the comments and realise that people have had enough. DefundtheirABC

Offs, woman can't fuken do anything wrong. pussypass feminismiscancer

Men are called monsters and women are called troubled..l think a bit of both describes both.

One's a female child killer, the other is a male child killer 💁‍♂️🙅‍♂️🙆‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Article to reserve for next toilet paper crisis.

Great piece ABC, not at all. Really you are being insensitive pricks you play gender politics. The issue is the datasets and the correlation of this. This is beyond a joke. defundabc stopgenderpolitics thisiswrong

She’s not no first black anything, all that shit is a lie, tell me now how the media know they race? They don’t the media is a complete lie from start, first black what? Like you know any President or Vice President ancestry, you people are liars, in fact, Bush have black

This is NEWS?

the biggest difference is the media coverage. both cases cover from a sympathetic viewpoint of the woman.

I would have thought that was obvious

. Denise Button wrote the article to address comments that journalists are 'more sympathetic media coverage of women who kill their children'. She then lists why men are much more evil & why women killing is often accidental. I guess she just confirmed the original hypothesis.

light reading.... woman - need help... men - cunts

I am not sure this article did anyone any favours. There are confused statements and contradictions. I am not sure if it even had a point it was trying to reach.

This is just outrageous bullshit. I want my tax dollars back.

Get in the sea

Defund The ABC

This is definitely an article that doesn't need to exist

Due to the feminist narrative that bangs on about male violence in families while conveniently staying quiet about female violence, many Australians were unaware mothers kill their children at the same rate as fathers! It's at little embarrassing to the feminist narrative.

Be assured the ABC's desire to always excuse female violence is not bias at all.

Neglect IS abuse, not separate. Raina Thaiday had religious and drug induced psychosis, and murdered 8 children. It's unhelpful to exclude religious training as a cause of violence.

Everyone has a choice. Our children have no choice. Wake up and stop being so selfish. We have a responsibility to our children. Friken wear it!

TL;DR: Men do it out of revenge. Women either because they lack support or due to a psychotic episode.

Summary: Men are always evil & Women only do bad things because men denied them the services they need.

ABC will always go easy on women. Even when it comes to murdering their children. The ABC have no shame.

What a lot of rubbish. There is no difference. Children are killed. That is all that matters

Feminist line:'hang the man from a tree, but the woman just needs more support and counseling because it is the man's fault somehow'.

I think the question you should be asking here is what caused this woman specifically to do this? And to leave her husband to discover them? Was he abusing her and this was her escape? Psychotic episode? Any other explanation makes her incredibly selfish.

This article is not worth your time reading it as the conclusion is simple: NO difference, both are monsters

There's a difference? Murder is murder

Some people should just not have children. 👎 Are we willing to do regular psychological assessments to see if parents can keep their children, or better still before they even have children?

what the fuck would they know

Jeez, that really brightened my day :/

Glad to see where my tax is going today

So many people don’t know this in the west, but this is the Chinese equivalent to the US gun violence in schools. It’s a major problem and you have adults going into schools and killing children. In the west this is hardly reported, but in China this happens a lot.
