    Good point - maternal filicide seems to be trending upwards in the past few year. Looks like everyone is paying a price for mental health issues these days.

    Correctional samples of maternal filicide

    In the correctional population, filicidal mothers were frequently unmarried, unemployed abuse victims, who had limited education and social support . Some had decreased intellect, and a few considered the child victim to be abnormal. Several correctional studies noted frequent depression, psychosis, substance abuse, suicidality, and prior mental health care . Multiple stressors (economic, social, abuse history, partner relationship problems), primary caregiver status, and difficulty caring for the child were frequent.
