I am not sure if the host is right in her assertions about abusive head trauma and the perniciousness or the parents rights movement leading to an erosion of children, children’s rights and children safety, but I think that this is a very interesting and captivating counterpoint to a larger media narrative.

Sound, ethical, and engaging reporting. Really love this podcast
I thought this podcast was great I’ve binged each episode to finally get to the episode at the end where they get to speak to Hope but it’s hidden behind a PAY WALL!!!
I Hate it when podcasters do this!!! Don’t you get enough money with the ads and sponsors you bang on and on about!!!
What’s the point in trying to raise awareness when you hide the last episode behind a PayWall!!!!
Unsubscribing another waste of time
One minor criticism: when you’re interviewing someone for an update let them talk more and don’t get a small bit of information and spend 2/3 of “interview “ explaining your feedback. I otherwise really enjoy and appreciate the podcast
This show is so educational and eye-opening. It is well-researched and sheds light on a form of abuse few people know about, but once you do know, you realize how prevalent it actually is. The facts of each case are irrefutable.

A hard-hitting investigative series that examines Munchausen by Proxy and abusive head trauma through case-level storytelling, expert commentary, and media critique. Across seasons, it centers case histories, medical debates, legal dynamics, and reporting ethics, highlighting how narratives shape public perception and policy. Noteworthy is the author-host's commitment to surfacing multiple perspectives—from doctors and investigators to families and journalists—while scrutinizing medical diagnoses, courtroom outcomes, and media coverage. Listeners who want rigorous, question-driven journalism about child welfare, medical controversy, and the psychology behind abuse narratives are likely to find this compelling and provocative.
