Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy Awareness

Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy Awareness Münchausen Syndrome by Proxy is a Form of Child Abuse. It is rare and poorly understood. The cause is unknown.

Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy is a debilitating disease of the mind, body and spirit and a deceiving form of child abuse. It is defined as "almost always involves a mother abusing her child by seeking unneeded medical attention for the child. The mother may fake symptoms of illness in her child by adding blood to the child's urine or stool, withholding food, falsifying fevers, secretly giving the child drugs to make the child throw up or have diarrhea, or using other tricks, such as infecting intravenous (given through a vein) lines to make the child appear or become ill.
..

The parent is usually very helpful in the hospital setting and is often appreciated by the nursing staff for the care she gives her child. She is often seen as devoted and self-sacrificing, which can make medical professionals unlikely to suspect the diagnosis of Munchausen syndrome by proxy. Her frequent visits unfortunately also make the child accessible to her so that she can induce further symptoms. Changes in the child's condition are almost never witnessed by hospital staff and almost always occur only in the mother's presence. Munchausen syndrome occurs because of psychological problems in the adult, and is generally an attention-seeking behavior. The syndrome can be life-threatening for the child involved."

Medical child abuse can stem from the need for attention and to hurt the other parent because things didn't turn out between them how they had imagined in their head. Often other forms of abuse physical and emotional are already present. Parental alienation, unless the other parent is a danger to the child, in itself is child abuse.
