When The Children of Single Parents End Up Dead
Households in which children live with a single mom and a “live in” boyfriend increases a child’s risk of abuse to 8x that of children living with their married parents. Most homicides of young children are committed by family members through beatings or suffocation. Although victims include approximately equal numbers of boys and girls, offenders include a disproportionate number of women, primarily their young, single mothers.
