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.
-Where there is no ___________ of privacy, such as in a hospital room, covert video surveillance does not constitute an unwarranted limitation of privacy.

The correct choice is "reasonable expectation" because the argument is that in places where there is no reasonable expectation of privacy, such as a hospital room, covert surveillance is not considered an unwarranted invasion of privacy.
