However, I would think everyone could agree that if qualified doctors disagree about a course of treatment the decision should be made by the parents.
Of course. I don't think any reasonable person would disagree with this.
The grey area occurs when, for example, one doctor believes a child fell from her crib, while the other doctor believes she is being abused by her parent. If you were the latter doctor, what would you do? Keep in mind you are a mandatory reporter.

As a doctor,I've had cases somewhat similar to this. 8 year old who mom took all over with the claim of some rare bleeding disorder. Turns out it was a wierd Manchausens by proxy case and that kid got taken away. I'm not saying that this is definately what is happening here but we are only hearing ONE side. I'll reserve judgement until I can hear both sides.
I'm really curious to hear what the other side has as evidence.
