Sadly, many parents of children with Lyme/MSIDS have been through hell and back after being accused of child abuse or Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy due to the lack of education and understanding of this complex, life-altering illness.
It’s now been proven that “shaken baby syndrome” is based on junk science, that children have been and continue to be medically kidnapped by the state in the middle of the night when police force their way into homes without a warrant due to a singular x-ray, and that many doctors are afraid to refer injured children for evaluations due to the tyranny of abuse specialists who often jump to the wrong conclusions, breaking up and destroying entire families.
Finally, some vindication……but more is needed
2025: Pediatric Child Abuse Doctors Exposed for Medical Kidnapping Goes Mainstream

As we look back on a very troubled 2025, one of the few bright spots from the year is that many Child Abuse Pediatricians (CAP) were exposed for their roles in child medical kidnapping cases in the corporate media.
I am also happy to report that a couple of the most highly profiled CAP doctors are no longer practicing here at the end of 2025, due to media exposure and lawsuits from the parents of their victims who were wrongly removed from their families.
While these doctors should be behind bars for the families they destroyed, at least a couple of them now have resigned in disgrace and no longer have jobs as Child Abuse Pediatricians, a job with a single purpose, to find parents who allegedly abuse their children.
If they cannot find parents who abuse their children in their community, then the entire rationale and reason for them to collect their paychecks goes away.
And thank God, a couple of them now are no longer collecting paychecks to falsely accuse parents of abusing their children. (See link for article)

Unfortunately, one of these prominent CAP doctors made her harrowing mark right here in Wisconsin.
Recently a federal lawsuit was filed against Dr. Nancy Harper by another pediatrician who served at the University of Minnesota for 17 years who accused the university of inflating child abuse diagnoses to secure lucrative grants by encouraging the manipulation of medical evidence that might have proved the innocence of parents.
The accusing pediatrician was fired for stating the scheme was intended to maximize the identification and prosecution of child abuse cases to secure funding and increase the prestige of the university’s child abuse fellowship program.
This, my friends, is where ‘science’ has devolved to and it’s been going on for years.
