NOTE

Step parent increases child abuse 100 fold

The presence of a stepparent in a family dramatically increases the likelihood of child abuse, with research indicating a hundredfold increase in risk compared to homes with two biological parents. This phenomenon is supported by evolutionary principles observed in various species, such as lions, where male competition leads to infanticide. New dominant males are driven to kill offspring that are not biologically theirs to prevent the investment of resources in another male's young. This behavioral pattern is rooted in evolutionary strategies aimed at maximizing reproductive success. Understanding this dynamic does not justify child abuse; rather, it underscores the importance of comprehensively examining the factors contributing to such behavior in families without both biological parents.
