So this isn't Munchausen by proxy abuse. There might be something else going on with this parent, but it's not this abuse pattern. And so we're not going to move forward as though it's an abuse pattern. Right.

So I think, yeah, if there were something where they're like, well, you know, we watched them go into like we saw the video surveillance and all of the doctors came in and planted something on the bed that looked suspicious and then said the mom did it or something just like smoking gun ish. And it doesn't sound like we have that information. And of course we don't have her medical records.

So it's really hard to say, but I think as a concept, you're right. And I think it's really important, not for just these cases, but to like when we're, you know, we are in the golden and by golden, I mean terrible age of conspiracy theories, right? You really have to just put some critical thinking skills on it. And also like, it's just, it is a pretty like wild allegation.

And again, it's a really common one. The conspiratorial language comes up a ton in these cases. And yeah, it's, it's strange that this is palatable to so many people to me, because I, because for that exact question, I think you just really need to like sit there and sit with it and picture it and be like, okay, three doctors go into a room and they say, what exactly?

Like, we don't like these parents. We think they're bad parents. We don't agree with the put our jobs at risk, put ourselves in the legal line of fire, and to accuse these families so that we can get this child away from them, for what benefit? I mean, it just doesn't, it doesn't make any sense. You can't make it make sense because it doesn't make sense.

And I think one last point about the sort of conspiracy of it, you know, what we see is actually the opposite. That even when there is every red flag and just the most damning evidence, I mean, I'm thinking about this case I'm working on right now, the most damning evidence that you could possibly imagine that abuse is happening is it is still hard to get doctors to buy in 100%, right?
