I'm just basing this on speculation here, but I think this board is full of people who are well-equipped to also speculate. Does this article make it sound like Sharon Stone has some king of Munchausen By Proxy syndrome or related issues?

Could be. I'd like to know what other medical conditions she has thought this child had. Actually botox is used in cases of ecessive sweating of the axilla and feet as well as some other areas. However; whether this child actually required an invasive therapy for his feet or simply socks and better foot hygiene is up in the air. It would appear that he simply needed socks and foot powder (from the article).
Would need more info.

She need to get her head a check-up. She wanted to have her kid to have botox for his feet. WTF?

I don't think it's Munchausen by Proxy, people with MbP actually make their kids sick and then take them into the hospital. The way I'm looking at this (especially with the Botoxing of the feet) is that she might just be a bit of an overbearing mother and she doesn't want him to lose any friends because his feet smell.
