If the mum's called Trouble, the girl had no chance in life.

There's probably all sorts of complex psychological reasons for someone to kill their family. If I recall correctly from the last time this topic came up men are far more likely to kill their whole family than women. As I also recall, where women kill their children there is usually mental illness involved (such as post natal depression of a severe kind) whereas men who kill their families are more likely to be acting on different impulses, not governed by insanity.

Why would those men kill their families? Like I said, there are probably all kinds of psychological factors, but mainly I think its because we are at our core, just another animal. Look at the animal kingdom and you will find plenty of murderous mums and dads.

Perhaps that is because women are typically smaller than their male counterparts and don't usually kill by the same means. Women tend to use drowning or drugs to murder their children. Men on the other hand are far more likely to murder with a weapon like a knife or gun.

FAIL! Sorry, first off, no one murders their children without severe mental illness involved. Secondly, perhaps women are more open in sharing emotional things beforehand and thats why their diagnoses are more readily defined, categorized than mens.

Tain't necessarily so.

Or, perhaps the answer is "depends on how you define mental illness."

Being a self-centered bitch is not a mental illness.

Diane Downs...

People who are truly crazy aren't responsible for their actions, don't understand right/wrong. Personally, I don't want to see "crazy" people getting away with murder just because they fit C'mans definition of nuts.

Ranting that someone who has murdered their kids is crazy reminds me of Chris Rock ranting about niggers... "I take care of my kids..."

I don't buy that for one minute. They are completely responsible. They just have to pay for their errors differently.
