Summary

This episode examines the Lindsay Clancy case in detail, including why it does not align with postpartum psychosis based on clinical insights from a trauma nurse. It explores historical and cross-cultural patterns of infanticide, legal responses in various societies, and the role of cultural and religious frameworks in shaping attitudes toward child protection. The discussion also covers the mother-baby dyad concept in modern medicine and its potential influence on perceptions of maternal responsibility.

The conversation emphasizes evidence-based analysis while addressing broader societal implications for preventing such tragedies. Episode Transcript Malcolm Collins :. Hello, Simone.
