Mama/M.A.M.A.: Munchausen's Syndrome by Proxy" is the provocative investigation of Munchausen's Syndrome by Proxy, a perplexing psychological disorder where a mother secretly but deliberately harms her child in order to get the sympathy and praise of others and the attention of the medical community. The film -- made over the course of three years and two continents -- scrutinizes the scientific research surrounding the diagnosis of Munchausen's and, in doing so, questions the very diagnosis itself. The filmmakers document the struggles of three average families battling the charge of Munchausen's with various, tragic results.

I agree, and until we fully understand what MBP is, we cannot hold any firm conclusions as to what MBP really is.
remain skeptical =)

yeah, a DNA will prove it, but until your claims are evidential ones, it's better not to state them, unless your intention was to help create a discussion about it. I'm not saying your wrong, just saying that proof is needed on your part.
And about the David Southall thing, I haven't heard of it until now so i'll have to look up on that first before i comment on it, unless you want to fill me in =)

@janderson65 Yes, and the horror of being falsely accused of this junk science will make human rights activits out of the most apathetic people. You people are stirring up a hornets nest.

@grimslider75 Yes, well lets see those "mothers" take a DNA test. And, while we are looking at proof, lets see Dr David Southall's 4,500 secret files on the babies he experimented on, shoving balloons down the poor little mites throats.

It's a con trick.
The video footage of MSBP - they were not the mothers of those children at all.

MSBP has been discredited by the House of Lords.
So it's not murder.
It's an "invented" illness, by a doctor, that was struck off as a doctor for "inventing" MSBP.
When challenged by barristers to produce his evidence and research, he said "he'd destroyed it".
To pells of laughter from the Barristers.
MSBP has been discredited - totally discredited.
