Parental mistreatment of children is proposed to be a manifestation of noxious societal forces impinging on families. Data from a series of comparative studies of families who had mistreated their children and those who had not is analyzed in relation to this proposition. Distinctions can be made among families who do not mistreat, and within types of mistreating families. Among low-income families several factors inhering in the status of poor people, including both the direct stresses of poverty and structural deficits in their relationship to community systems of familial supports, are observed to be particularly marked among mistreating families. These factors, extrinsic to the families, are interpreted as a manifestation of societal forces which engender the mistreatment of children.
