That is an excellent question! Most MBP perpetrators are parents, which doesn't fit this case, so we are already in unchartered territory if we are indeed dealing with any sort of MBP scenario. This is where I wish we had some clinical psychologist who could join in the discussion!

That would be helpful, wouldn't it? I'm finding the discussion about MBP intriguing because I just can't fathom playing with a child's health, and sense of well-being, solely as a means to get attention.

Yes, Munchausen Syndrome exists, exactly as you would suspect. No proxy needed.

Thank you! I'm learning quite a bit today!
