0, nill, /dev/null.... how many professionals are going to admit that they participated in a crime against a child? and when found out it's covered up. How many treatment centers are connected to state government in some way? How many centers are NON-profits? They able to pay for damages caused by professional ignorance and neglect? What recourse is left for the child on their discovery of the crime. NOTHING.

Lawyers seldom will even talk about the case, much less take one. Professional considerations. ( read. bribes) Also remember,

Victims of the State, have NO Rights. As the State is immune!!

The weakest prey, the easiest target, for a predator.

That why so many try to get so close to the children?

It is difficult to provide an exact number of children who are victims of Munchausen by proxy syndrome each year, as cases are often underreported or misdiagnosed. However, research estimates suggest that hundreds of children may be affected annually.

Would a person with Munchausen by proxy simulate Asperger's Syndrome in a child?

Before pediatricians and psychiatrists were familiar with Asperger's Syndrome, some of them thought the parents who said there was something wrong with their children were exaggerating, delusional, over-protective, and, in some cases, abusive parents with Munchausen by proxy. (For mention of parents being thought to have Munchausen by proxy because their children had AS, see the links below.) I do not know of Munchausen by proxy cases where the parent or guardian attempted to make the child appear to have Asperger's Syndrome, but this does not mean it has not happened. There are other conditions that would be easier to fake by giving the child medicines or chemicals, since some of the social skills impairments (lack of eye contact, avoidance of social contact) would be harder to replicate with drugs. However, many medical professionals' unfamiliarity with Asperger's Syndrome diagnoses could make it an attractive option for Munchausen by proxy, since the professionals might not have been exposed to it previously. Asperger's Syndrome also has the advantage of not being able to be diagnosed with laboratory tests. However, using Asperger's Syndrome means the parent might need to engage in lengthy descriptions of AS before receiving the desired sympathy and attention from others. Unfortunately, I cannot give you a definitive answer on whether the condition of Asperger's has been the goal of an abusive parent via Munchausen by proxy.

Will a narcissistic mother fake illness in front of her own children?

Yes. There are several levels to narcissism and attention-seeking behavior. Some of them are very deeply rooted, such as Munchausen's Syndrome. In this psychiatric illness, people will go to extremes - sometimes simply spinning stories for doctors, family, and friends - sometimes going so far as to injure or poison themselves. Why would a mother do this in front of her own children? To gain their sympathy and to have them become part of the lie. There is also Munchausen By Proxy - which is something you need to be wary of when there are children involved. While people with Munchausen feign illness so that they can be taken care of, people with Munchausen By Proxy will make another person in their life ill so that other people look at them as a wonderful, selfless caretaker.
