According to the statistics I posted it's fairly even, men just edging out the women. So no, I don't.

You can't even read your own posts.

The way I read it, mothers are at 30%, fathers are at 31% and "other male acquaintances (i.e., live-in boyfriends)" are at 23%.

That's 54% male to 30% female.

Not even close.

We're discussing the murder of a child by his father, so when I said 'men just edging out the women' I was of course referring to fathers (31%) and mothers (30%) in said statistics.

"other male acquaintances (i.e., live-in boyfriends)"

Again - interjecting what you THINK you know into the facts. Life will be easier when you admit you were wrong in your initial post.

So, 53% of the time, kid is killed if the kid is with mom - either by mom or her boyfriend (Anyway, notice that you stats don't seem to include cases where there is more than one guilty party).

I'd say kid is safer with dad.

This is "murder." Add death for neglect, etc, and the women take a broad lead in the infant fatality department.
