In such a case, does the plaintiff have to actually have a kid though? Like if it's an open secret that the case is manufactured, do you not get in to any kind of trouble if for example you made up the hypothetical damaged child? Because otherwise some poor kid is still going to have a rough time whether the case is "real" in the sense of a genuinely outraged parent who suddenly decided to sue, or "manufacturerd" in the sense that the story is basically hypothetical and can't be disproven and the motivations for suing are part of a political movement with backing and strategy behind it.
