"The vast majority of child abuse is perpetrated by men."
That's according to an editorial in this morning's Herald on Sunday.
The following statistics from 2006 clearly show that females are perpetrating a great deal of child abuse.
And just released official data shows that in 2010 35 percent of the apprehensions for assault on a child were females.
It beggars belief that such inaccurate claims from what should be reliable commentators make print. "I read it is the newspaper - it must be true...."

What do expect from such a tacky tabloid?
Hell, I wouldn't eat fish and chips wrapped in it. Couldn't take the risk of food poisoning.
So why risk mind poisoning by reading the damned thing?
