What is Munchausen syndrome by proxy?

Munchausen syndrome by proxy is a mental illness and a form of child abuse. The caretaker of a child, most often a mother, either makes up fake symptoms or causes real symptoms to make it look like the child is sick.Signs in caretakers:

  • The caretakers often work in health care and know a lot about medical care
  • These caretakers are very involved with their children. They seem devoted to the child or children
Signs in a child
  • The child sees a lot of healthcare providers and has been in the hospital a lot.
  • often has had many tests, surgeries, or other procedure
  • has strange symptoms that don't fit with any disease. The symptoms do not match the test results.
  • Blood samples do not match the child's blood type
