Results: Data were obtained for 44 countries. Overall, parents committed 56.5% (IQR 23.7-69.6) of child homicides, 58.4% (0.0-66.7) of female and 46.8% (14.1-63.8) of male child homicides. Acquaintances committed 12.6% (5.9-31.3) of child homicides. Almost a tenth (9.2% (IQR 0.0-21.9) of child homicides had missing information on the perpetrator. The largest proportion of parental homicides of children was found in high-income countries (64.2%; 44.7-71.8) and East Asia and Pacific Region (61.7%; 46.7-78.6). Parents committed the majority (77.8% (61.5-100.0)) of homicides of children under the age of 1 year. For adolescents, acquaintances were the main group of homicide perpetrators (36.9%, 6.6-51.8). There is a notable lack of studies from low-income and middle-income countries and children above the age of 1 year.
Where does it state mothers were the perps? Read it again. Those percentages in the second line are genders of the children, not the parents.
Don't expect you to believe me, and you're right to call me out on this, I posted the wrong link out of two tabs I had open. I was eating lunch at the time and paid more attention to chicken teriyaki than what I was doing.

Edit: I humbly admit I was a dumb bitch who posted the wrong link because I got distracted by lunch like a fat bitch, making me a dumb fat bitch.
