Answer to Question 2

Munchausen-by-proxy is a rare but potentially very harmful, even deadly, form of child abuse. In this syndrome, a parent feigns, exaggerates, or induces an illness in a child. This can range from fabrication of symptoms to causing severe harm, such as illness or injury. Video recordings have captured parents attempting suffocation, trying to break a child's arm, and attempting to poison a child with disinfectant. Even more alarming is the fact that many of these children had siblings who had died suddenly and unexpectedly.
