- Thorough and well researched. Thanks Andrea.
Well researched and compelling. Season 6 is a display of unwavering courage by Andrea’s team, Mishelle and her aunt. I also appreciate the unflinching willingness to point out that to defend and excuse perpetrators is to become complicit in this abuse.
Season 7 just further shows this team’s commitment to searching for the truth and hearing the perspectives of all stakeholders if they’re willing and able to talk. The murderer of little Knowellan Kelly literally got away with murder. This is a h... more

I’ve gotten to season 7 knowing and accepting the deep bias Andrea brings to the show. I can think critically enough to weed through what I know are only her opinions. However, season 7 is on a next level. Not only is there a lack of research, with every interview used to further her own opinion, but the subject matter isn’t even about what her show is intended to be. The entire season is merely an attempt to clear her doctor friend’s name.

Thorough reporting on Munchhausen by proxy

United States25 days ago - Not journalism
There is no research. Just presented her preconceived beliefs over and over and over. Had to quit listening because it was SO bad. Repetitive and painful to listen to. Are there people who purposely make their child sick or abuse them? Absolutely. But the reasons given in this podcast are insane. Seek a 2nd opinion you’re doctor shopping. Never listening to any of her other podcasts again
Apple Podcasts1KelleymercUnited Statesa month ago - Great podcast, in spite of…
I heard about this podcast through the betrayal podcast and I’m glad I did. As a parent who believes in parent’s rights, I’ve been hesitant to watch Take Care of Maya because the idea terrified me. And because I don’t always trust Netflix after what they did with the Steven Avery case. They basically did the same thing they did with this case. They left out SO much information. I’m glad I found this podcast first. The comments about conservatives almost turned me off to the podcast because it sh... more
