The United States, Canada and Australia have some of the highest rates of filicide. One of the main culprits leading to this phenomenon is that saying, "I bought you into this world, I can take you out." 

Let's break that down:

3 - I'll kill you!
2 - You're Mine!
1 - Die!

Flip the script on it: "I might take away your privileges, but I will NEVER take away your life!"

Break it down:

3 - I love you!
2 - You're safe
1 - live!


TERMS:

1. Fil·i·cide [ˈfiləˌsīd]: The killing of one's son or daughter:

2. Hon·or kill·ing [honor killing]: In certain cultures, the killing of a relative, especially a girl or woman, who is perceived to have brought dishonor on the family.
