		Compare with child murder (the killing of an unrelated child), infanticide (systematic killings of a large number of children), patricide (the killing of a parent by his or her child), and fratricide (the killing of one's sibling).

	Filicide, Chapter 2
		The parent, in committing filicide on the son or daughter, is controlling the son or daughter by literally creating the child's personality in the image of the parent.
		Filicidal rrian is so thoroughly indoctrinated into compulsive rationality that he rarely glimpses any possibility that men may also be something other than rational and that that something might be as good as being rational.
		The theory of filicide reveals the way in which we are all implicated in and by the planet-wide system of violence whether ours is the hand that wields the knife or pushes the nuclear button, or whether the hand is that of a surrogate.

	Filicide, Chapter 1
		Filicide is the primary formative experience of the son and the daughter and largely determines the reactive standards by which the grown-up son, called "father," and the grown-up daughter, called "mother," lead their lives and in turn commit filicide on the next generation of children.
		Filicide occurs in what we may calI the proto-scene, that being the moment when the parent exerts and confirms its control of the son or daughter and the moment when the son or daughter, to survive, yields to that control by beginning to adopt the appropriate masculine or feminine behavior.
		Through filicide we can see why political revolutions of whatever kind inevitably degenerate into internecine violence, and why the leaders who emerge from revolutions turn out to be much the same kind of rulers as were their pre-revolutionary forebears.

		In understanding mentally ill filicide, the mediating factor of impaired reality is vital but not sufficient, and the intensity of the suffering perceived in the mothers’ delusional state is of such an extreme magnitude that the filicide seems rational to them (Stanton, Simpson, & Wouldes, 2000).
		Inclusion of neonaticide in the general filicide data increases the number of mothers that kill their babies (neonaticide is primarily a mother’s crime) and studies done in prison collect data on mostly fathers because they are more often sentenced to prison (Marleau, et al., 1999).
		Maternal filicide is usually committed using “hands on” methods that entail close and active physical contact between mother and child, such as shaking, manual battering, suffocation, or drowning, and some indirect methods such as arson or drowning while the children are asleep or sedated (McKee & Shea, 1998; Palermo, 2002).

	Filicide by fire
		Filicide refers to cases in which the murderer is a parent of the victim.
		Filicide by fire (using fire as the instrument of death) appears to be an emerging phenomenon.
		Cases examined by the ncavc and brought to the analysts' attention suggest there are sufficient cases of filicide by fire around the United States to justify arson investigators' attention, but more cases need to be examined to sharpen profile criteria and perhaps add extra factors.

	A Meta-Synthesis of Filicide Classification Systems
		Filicide classification systems, beginning with Resnick (1969), are reminiscent of Gibson and Klein's (1961) categorization of homicide by motive which is divided into four groups including mercy; insanity and/or suicidal despair; violent rage; and quarrels.
		Lewis and Bunce (2003) argue that the existence of altruism as a motive for filicide is controversial.
		The result, in the context of filicide research, has been the development of a splintered foundation that at present does not reflect the level of expertise cultivated by legal and medical professionals who are committed to helping filicidal women and those who are at risk for committing the crime.

	An Overview of Filicide
		Though it is certainly not always the case, the prevention of filicide may be achieved by physicians who interact with a patient prior to his or her commission of this devastating act.
		Psychiatrists may underestimate the prevalence of filicidal thoughts, when in fact greater than 40 percent of depressed mothers with children less than three years old endorsed thoughts to harm them.[48] Even if it occurs to clinicians to inquire about filicidal thoughts, they can be prevented from doing so for a number of reasons.
		Filicide, tragically, is a permanent act, and the key to avoiding the devastating effects, for the perpetrator, the victim, and the community, is prevention.

		First, the introductory statement that filicide was often committed by men, and secondly the statement in the body of the programme that “yes, mothers as well as fathers commit filicide”.

	Tyler Morning Telegraph - RESEARCH SHEDS LIGHT ON CHILD-KILLING PARENTS
		But filicide is not as common as it was in the past, Milner says, because of legalized abortion and measures such as the Baby Moses Law.
		Filicide researchers differ slightly on how to categorize mothers who kill their children, but most generally follow a classification similar to what McKee uses.
		He says roughly half the cases of maternal filicide are instances of single mothers who are hiding their pregnancy or have not bonded with their baby, or mothers who physically abused a child to death.

	NCJRS Abstract - National Criminal Justice Reference Service
		This paper presents a meta-synthesis of the filicide (killing of a child by a parent) classifications and categorizations constructed by Resnick (1969, 1970); Scott (1973); d'Orban (1979); Bourget and Bradford (1990); Bourget and Gagne (2002); and Guileyardo, Prahlow, and Barnard (1999).
		For the purposes of this meta-synthesis, "filicide" is defined as "the killing of a son or daughter older than 24 hours." Resnick's classifications are based on motive, which were determined from his interviews with perpetrators and those close to the perpetrators.
		Almost half of the filicides examined by Resnick were categorized as "altruistic," involving the killing of children that a parent did not want to leave on their own after the parent's planned suicide or to relieve a child of real or imagined suffering.

		Paternal filicides tend to be committed by older men with severe mental disorders (Campion, Cravens & Covan, 1988) since child murders by fathers may possibly be an underreported population (Adelson, 1961; Maguire, et al., 1993; McKee & Shea, 1998).
		Filicide, by definition, refers to the murder of a child by the child's parent.
		However, filicide, whether committed by a mother or a father, remains tragic and could be preventable.

	The Provincial Health Ethics Network (Alberta, CANADA)
		The concept of altruistic filicide, parents killing their children "for their own good" exists in both bioethics and criminology, yet these two groups of experts view the phenomenon very differently.
		The effects of public opinion and expert statements that altruistic filicides are sometimes justified would be expected to have the greatest effect on parents in most similar circumstances.
		While Resnick reported that half of filicides were "altruistic" decades ago, his study suggested that this motive was much more common in mothers and that only 35% of paternal filicides were altruistic.
