Ever notice?
The pukes are always going on about how the women's movement in our country has destroyed the so-called "nuclear family" and that our family values are in such tatters because we (liberals) like to stress that a woman has self-value and should be able to choose whether she works and has a career or stays home with the kids and raises them?

Well it seems to me that in many of the situations we hear about nowadays on mothers abusing their kids, or killing them for a boyfriend or some other situation like Andrea Yates, that we're hearing an awful lot lately about these people killing their children, whether it's for money, companionship, drugs, alcohol or some other insidious reason. And guess what? It's usually repukes themselves--those "stay-at-home-moms" who are raised barefoot and pregnant who are the ones doing the abuse. You rarely hear of an "independent" woman who is a mother as well who goes and kills her kids, or harms or abuses them. It's inevitably one of those so-called RRR women or some poor dumb bitch who has a substance abuse problem and who doesn't have a mind of her own who ends up ditching her kids because she's got problems up the ying-yang. Maybe she doesn't vote, but she's always the kind of people that the pukes hold up to the light to say, "hey, here's a SAHM for you!"

The incidence is getting worse, too. These women might not be fully capable of making their own decisions, but they certainly don't have many options. They likely don't have health coverage, and certainly don't have any psychiatric care, they have abusive husbands and lovers who don't even think of them as anything beyond a piece of ass, and their self-esteem in in the pits.

And what's worse is that they are undereducated (if at all) and with their substance abuse problems, they obviously don't have some obvious choices for those who don't have addictions. This group needs to be somehow freed of the influences in their lives, or they will continue to abuse their children and themselves, and will have no way out of the hell they have built for themselves. The subject of spousal abuse within the puke community is one that needs to be addressed somehow, and allow for these women to have alternatives that they currently don't possess.

1. The Stats
Edited on Sun Jun-12-05 09:35 AM by Beaver Tail
According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics “The number of homicides of children under age 5 increased over the past two decades but declined recently” with 31 % of the fathers and 30% of mothers of being the perpetrators. 23% were killed by male acquaintances, 6% were killed by other relatives, 3% were killed by strangers.

Basically over ½ of the murders of children are done my men.

It seems men are more of a problem here than women so I think it is media sensationalism.

Edit here... If you take a look at the numbers you will find they were higher during the George Bush Sr. and Clinton year’s but dropped towards the end of the Clinton years and are still dropping. From first glimpse the stats seem inconclusive but the numbers would have to be looked at hard and analyzed against presidencies and population base of the specific years to have any meaningful information otherwise it is just a guess.
