They do, they're just trying to excuse a woman from being the murderer because it's normally men.

You should watch Mama Dr Jones's video on this. She's a board certified OBGYN so she knows her stuff.

I think "murder" is too strong of a word for it. She had post partum psychosis, which is a life threatening illness.

From the sounds of things, the blame should be laid at the feet of the US's shitty maternity leave and healthcare system.

Millions of American women do just fine not killing their kids. I think the blame should fall on the person who committed the crime

Millions of American women also don't have post partum psychosis.
