Baby Abduction: A Female Crime

Why is it always a woman that's responsible when a baby goes missing from a hospital?

Deanne and Richard Rice went through hell when their newborn baby Elizabeth was snatched from hospital. But who abducts newborns and why does it happen - why are the perpetrators nearly always female?

Also on the programme: Whose role is it to teach children about sex - mum, dad, teacher, government, or someone else? Plus, that age-old question - does a woman need a man to be truly happy?.
