A Munchausen Mom in Australia forced her twin boys to read CRAZY statements about her ex-husband for a "revenge video". These disturbing videos were posted to a website belonging to Melissa Williams-Brown https://melissawilliamsbrown.com

Melissa Williams-Brown is a 52 year-old, twice-divorced woman currently married to Glenn Jonathan Brown and living in Adelaide, South Australia. Google searches reveal she has previously lied about earning a degree from George Washington University and is the subject of multiple fraud investigations being conducted by the South Australian Police (SAPOL). The videos were embedded in a 20-page rant about 'drug addicted cyberstalkers' and were reposted widely across many social media platforms including Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and TikTok.

Factitious disorder imposed on another (FDIA), also known as Munchausen syndrome by proxy (MSbP), is a condition in which a caregiver creates the appearance of health problems in another person, typically their child. This may include injuring the child or altering test samples. They then present the person as being sick or injured. The behaviour occurs without a specific benefit to the caregiver. Permanent injury or death of the child may occur as a result of the disorder. The cause of FDIA is unknown. 

The primary motive may be to gain attention and manipulate physicians. Risk factors for FDIA include pregnancy related complications and a mother who was abused as a child or has factitious disorder imposed on self. Diagnosis is supported when removing the child from the caregiver results in improvement of symptoms or video surveillance without the knowledge of the caregiver finds concerns. Those affected by the disorder have been subjected to a form of physical abuse and medical neglect. Management of FDIA may require putting the child in foster care. It is not known how effective therapy is for FDIA; it is assumed it may work for those who admit they have a problem. The prevalence of FDIA is unknown, but it appears to be relatively rare. 

More than 95% of cases involve a person's mother. The prognosis for the mother is poor. However, there is a burgeoning literature on possible courses of therapy. The condition was first named in 1977 by British paediatrician Roy Meadow. Some aspects of FDIA may represent criminal behavior.
