Suicidal and homicidal behavior of postadolescent mother

Publication at Second Faculty of Medicine |
2005

Abstract

The authors analyze the dynamics of the interconnection of the phenomenon of aggression directed against each other (suicidal behavior) and against the other (homicidal behavior). Using the example of postadolescent mothers, they hypothesize whether the presence of long-lasting suicidal fantasies may increase the risk of the mother's homicidal behavior toward the baby.

They characterize other factors that increase the risk of inappropriate object aggression.
