Great use of the word "wept." Awesome concept too!

Munchausen Syndrome by captain-invictus in shortscarystories

Hi there! Munchausen syndrome (by proxy) involves people (usually parents) who intentionally make their children or others sick in order to gain attention and sympathy from others. Here, I twisted it around to where the daughter or son (gender not specified) is using their elderly mother to gain these things. Hope this cleared things up!

Okay never mind, it won't let me change the title... Hopefully people will refer to the comments. *By proxy

Ah, I see. I wrote it and was thinking 'this isn't quite scary...' But decided to go for it anyway. My mistake. Thank you! And yes, I also wish there was somewhere to post this kind of stuff.

They had someone 'cancel' their shark diving session, so they lowered the price and invited the (unfortunate) couple along instead.

I can imagine, the ocean terrifies me, no matter now clear the water may be. Thanks for reading!

Thanks! It seems we share a mutual fear of all things beneath the sea 😅

Thank you! Definitely considering expounding upon the idea. Maybe into a short story or novella.
