What Leads a Parent to Mistreat Their Children for Attention?

Child abuse can be our biggest public health problem (Wylie 1). The Munchausen agent is an act of abusing a child whose offender is usually a parent or a guardian of a child. Parents are deliberately neglecting and abusing their children to attract the attention of physicians and other people.

These people may also make their children use these medications (they force them to use medicine). Children are annoying to other parent groups. All of these are causing serious child abuse problems. They are subject to physical and mental abuse, even even big attacks
