"This is clearly psychotic — not necessarily both of them are psychotic, but at least one of them has to be psychotic for this to occur."
- Laura Davies, San Francisco-based psychiatrist
San Francisco-based psychiatrist Laura Davies, who works with children, adolescents and adults, said sometimes two children can fall into a syndrome called folie a deux, in which two people can share a delusional idea.
"This is clearly psychotic — not necessarily both of them are psychotic, but at least one of them has to be psychotic for this to occur," Davies explained.
From what's been published about the case so far, she added: "This is explicitly not an Internet problem. There's a lot of things I don't like about the Internet, and I'm a big fan of limiting screen time … but this is an issue of, [one of these girls] is really, really way more than troubled."
