Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy
Hello,

I am not quite sure why you undid my whole contribution. I provided proper cites, and accurate statistics versus what was previously on there. The original post was very poorly written, was lacking citations, and had incorrect information. I would just like to know what was so wrong with my corrections that it all had to be undone. It just struck me as odd that everything would be undone, when the original was incorrect.

I would love input regarding how to make it better, rather than removing all of the information that I gathered from scholarly bases, and all of the correct information I provided.

Thanks! Xodev39 (talk) 20:02, 27 September 2011 (UTC) xodev39
 * MSbP is not officially recognised in the latest Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, 4th Ed, so do not present it as illness. Also your links are not verifiable, so there is no way to say if these sources are cited correctly. Wiki is a free public encyclopedia, so your sources should be available to public and free. I checked few sources that did had links, and text there was not corresponding to how you have cited it. Innab (talk) 21:26, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

I did all my research from Academic Search Premier.. and I used the cite tool within Wikipedia, so must be something wrong there. You would rather have incorrect information than have correct information? There are a bunch on this page with no links to sources. I don't see what the problem is.

One study showed that in over 90 percent of cases of MSbP, the mother is the abuser.[24] In other cases, the MSbP abuser is often another female caregiver. Fathers have been the perpetrators in a handful of professional reports. The female preponderance may be attributed to socialization patterns that encourage females to seek the sympathy and assistance of others. Neuropsychological testing of perpetrators has shown either normal results or nonspecific abnormalities.

I had CORRECT, CITED information for that. The actual percent is 93%.

And if you would have read what I put in the bottom of the page, this is for my college class.

No where did I say "illness" per say, is it not being presented as said "illness" as it is on this page? Just because it isn't recognized doesn't mean ALLL of my information can't be put on here.

Half the stuff on the page isn't even cited!

Read this: Many experts[who?] feel this form of ill treatment is driven not only by the attention that the child and parent/caregiver receive because of the diagnostic tests that must be run, but also by the satisfaction of being able to deceive individuals who the abuser feels are more important or powerful than he or she.[citation needed] Münchausen by Proxy can have many long-term effects on a child. In some cases, children themselves go on to develop Münchausen Syndrome, which is where they are likely to inflict injury upon themselves or fake illnesses.[citation needed] One of the reasons for this is that they seek the attention they received when they were in poor health. They may also inflict injury or sickness upon themselves so that their caregiver/parent will not leave them.

NONE of it is cited, I atleast had cites, and ALL of that information isn't even correct!!

Maybe you should read up on it..

Pretty sure it is an illness, regardless of it is officially recognized, people have been diagnose with it FYI.

I don't mean to be rude, but I put time and effort into making this complete, and all you are doing is making it incorrect. Maybe you should do some research on this topic.

By the way, I said it was a type of abuse..

I kept in the part about it not being recognized, now there is nothing wrong with it. And if you read it I call it a syndrome, it is called Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy, and I call it abuse.

May you should read over what I put.

Don't go after my cites since there are some one there that are the exact same way as mine.
