More than meets the eye. Many women abuse children. often there are (mothers) in name only who use their kids as whipping boys ( or girls) for their hated ex-spouse, boyfriend, etc. I heard from a woman who was once a security officer at a prison ( a prison guard, so to speak)- most of the women in Hard Custory- that is, for serious crimes, are involved in some sort of form of Child abuse. Minor crimes like Shoplifting are often committed by females- but the heavy-duty stuff is usually child abuse. DRAGNET dramatized this in one case where the assault weapon making the welts on the victim's back turned out to be a length of electrical extension cord! It is one of the few Violent crimes routinely commited by women.

"No thanks, I prefer Intrauterine Child Abuse" "Mold your child's destiny with Intrauterine Child Abuse" "Is it abuse if you cannot see it happening? Intrauterine Child Abuse and you" "Parenthood begins at inception" "Help to stop abusing your baby today" "The drug abusing you is abusing your baby too" "Protect your child from abuse before birth" "Mommy, please help me. It hurts so bad!" "Are you okay with the drugs abusing your child too?" "Would you let him treat your child that way?" "If someone else did to my child what I am doing, I would kill them" "Drug related Intrauterine Child Abuse is real"
