Wayne Vaught | Parents, Lies, and Videotape: Covert Video Surveillance in Pediatric Care
Vaught takes on the pros and cons of covert video surveillance in cases of suspected child abuse, focusing specifically on Munchausen's Syndrome by Proxy cases involving children abused by their own parents. Proponents argue that it is necessary since these cases are so difficult to confirm otherwise, while critics point out that this invasion of privacy is a breach of parental trust in the health professional. Vaught uses the fiduciary obligation of trust to argue that the parents' entrustment of their child's health and well-being to the health professional means that covert video surveillance in cases of suspected child abuse does not constitute a breach of trust.
