I recently read a claim that most Domestic Abuse that happens in this World is actually Mother on Child abuse. But we rarely talk about it, just because of our misandrist culture. We can talk about incarceration but whatever it is, we should apply the morality equally. In my country its just considered ok and sometimes even "good" If mothers abuse their child. My gf gets abused by her mother a lot and one day she was just abused out of limits (she had marks all over her body) , she even considered talking to authorities but authorities here will just dismiss it as some stupid kid complaining about a normal thing that should happen.
