Childhood breast cancer is more likely to be due to a penetrative genetic mutation that is present from birth in every cell, not a randomly occurring mutation from causes that can be limited in lifetime exposure as in adults.
Puberty may turn on the genetic program of these cancers. It is more common in girls receiving radiation treatment, but that likely means the girls have another condition that required such treatment and other risk factors in addition to the treatment
