"A child's bruises or broken bones are more likely to be called abuse when
a stepfather is in the home, and more likely to be called accident when a
biological father is, so data showing a higher incidence of abuse in homes
with a stepfather are ... biased.  'There is no substantial difference
between the rates of severe violence committed by generic parents and by
stepparents,' Prof. butler concludes"
