Fake pregnancy and fake abortion are extreme manifestations of psychological manipulation, often associated with personality disorders or emotional manipulation behaviors. This type of behavior may involve performative personality disorder, borderline personality disorder, or pathological lying, with motivations including emotional blackmail, property disputes, or relationship control. From a legal perspective, fictitious pregnancy or miscarriage may constitute fraud, but it needs to be judged in conjunction with specific actions. Fake pregnancy behavior is often accompanied by carefully designed detailed performances, such as forging prenatal examination reports, deliberately changing body shape, and fabricating pregnancy reactions. Perpetrators often use their partners' expectations of fertility to control their actions, creating feelings of guilt or responsibility to achieve their goals. Psychological research has found that this group of people often experience early emotional deprivation and view childbirth as a tool of power rather than a life process. Clinically, some cases are accompanied by a tendency towards Munchausen syndrome, and attention is gained by creating a medical emergency. Pretending to have an abortion has a stronger psychological impact, and the perpetrator often chooses important time points to suddenly announce the abortion and blame certain behaviors of their partner or spouse. This traumatic manipulation can lead to post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms in victims, including persistent guilt, sleep disorders, and social avoidance. Judicial psychiatric appraisal found that some perpetrators have antisocial personality traits and can calmly plan false medical records or even purchase prop blood. Such behavior has irreversible damage to marital relationships, and even if the truth is revealed, it is difficult to rebuild trust.
When encountering such emotional fraud, communication records and medical evidence should be retained, and legal assistance and psychological intervention should be sought in a timely manner. Marriage counseling is a necessary psychological repair for victims, but it is important to be aware that perpetrators may continue to manipulate them through other forms. From a preventive perspective, establishing a transparent medical information sharing mechanism between partners and jointly participating in the prenatal examination process can effectively reduce such risks. At the societal level, it is necessary to strengthen education on reproductive ethics and clarify the legal consequences of fabricating reproductive facts.
