 Child abuse can be a dangerous situation for infants. Professionals must weigh the risk of failing to act when children are seriously harmed against the serious harm caused by carrying out safeguarding interventions. In severe cases, foster care may be advisable. The negative effects for the child's psychosocial development require that such placement must be based on very solid evidence. Our goal is to identify why Dutch parents whose child may have a medical condition that could mimic symptoms of child abuse have a significant chance of being erroneously convicted and losing custody of their child. As a method, we will describe and analyze the following case. An Armenian, Dutch newborn, uncomplicated term vaginal delivery started developing small bruises on various body locations at two weeks after birth. At two months, a well-baby clinic doctor referred the girl to a university hospital, mentioning that there were no reasons to suspect child abuse and that her Armenian grandmother easily bruised as well. However, before consultation by a pediatrician of the hospital-located expertise center for child abuse, the parents were suspected of child abuse.
