I am still awaiting replies from the following experts on MSBP and how it cannot be linked to Autism. Public statements that I’m searching for are:
A - MSBP is never linked to Autism
B - In the genetic roulette of Autism, there is oftentimes more than one child with ASD in the custody battle. MSBP does not present with a focus on more than one child.

I don’t know a lot about this topic (i.e., about the autism part of it), but do note that there appear to be no reports in the professional literature of autism per se being falsely alleged in MBP cases. In other words, it might occur, but, if so, no professionals have published the account, at least based on my search of the PubMed database.
Good luck with your efforts.Marc D. Feldman, M.D.
