Malingering?

I’ve been learning about this disorder because of the Gypsy Rose case, and here is the definition. “Malingering is the fabrication, feigning, or exaggeration of physical or psychological symptoms designed to achieve a desired outcome, such as personal gain, relief from duty or work, avoiding arrest, receiving medication, or mitigating prison sentencing.”

I think that this case has definite signs of malingering. I don’t think she’s making her kids sick on purpose, but doing drugs while pregnant could be put in that category. They have learned to grift with medical emergencies, and that is malingering. Has anyone else thought of this?
