Sometimes the parent tries to kill themselves too....albeit a bit half heartedly.

Fathers usually choose the poison route though, or a quicker and less violet death for their children.
Stabbing always feels sudden to me, spur of the moment.

I cant think of any father who has poisoned their children, and I do think many times when a father murders their kids its spur of the moment.

Mothers seem to plan more, and often mothers kill for very different reasons, rarely to get back at an ex.

I’ve heard of lots of fathers who kill their children in cars - carbon monoxide poisoning.
There seemed to be quite a few years ago but less so nowadays. Perhaps it’s due to cars emitting less gassy poisonous shite due to lower emissions?
Fucked if I know. It’s all getting a bit science for me now.

Oh yeah, carbon monoxide poisoning, I was thinking liquid poison in foods.
The most tragic case I can remember was when a father jumped out of a high rise window with his 2 small children. The boy died, he and his daughter survived.
They had been on holiday and he and his wife had argued.
He took the kids and jumped on impulse....horrific.
