Munchausen syndrome is a psychiatric disorder in which those affected feign disease, illness, or psychological trauma in order to draw attention or sympathy to themselves. It is in a class of disorders known as factitious disorders which involve "illnesses" whose symptoms are either self-induced or falsified by the patient. It is also sometimes known as Hospital addiction syndrome.

MSBP(by proxy) is when the parents are the one's abusing the children for attention. the abuse isn't just limited to that either, it extends out into whatever creative form a parent can come up with.

Munchhausen's and Munchhausen's by proxy is no longer recognized as a distinct disorder. They have been reclassified under a more general "Factitious Disorder".
Generally, this includes individuals who purposely fabricate symptoms to draw attention to themselves.
Likely, more common than one might think.
