    Tracey Hardy, from Macclesfield, told her ex John she was pregnant and then claimed a friend's child was her own for five years to trick him into paying child maintenance after he dumped her in a text message.
    John formed a close bond with Tyler, who he saw regularly and spent £15,000 on maintenance and legal fees for custody battles, when he hadn't seen his son for two years he reported him missing to the police in 2017. She was jailed for 2 years in 2018 so I take it she is now out

Imagine how disorienting and soul crushing that would be. If that was me I'd be grieving like I'd actually lost a real child and I don't think I'd be able to carry on after that.

      I suppose they couldn't rule out it being registered but one typo making it unfindable without more info, such as hospital the supposed birth took place in. So if you she was trying to claim the existence of the child with made-up info it would be easy than the other way round (which it was in this case)

I never knew it was twins or a miscarriage with another guy or even she was pregnant.. she met me the day she lost them? She said she's had an operation.. lied about the existence of them. Only when her sister dropped out it's ashame about the twins I sent her messages that she said she's having an operation.. operation? Was a miscarriage.. people do this to gain control..

    That's so horrible. I often have realistic dreams where I interact with non existing family members, and after waking up it can take me hours, sometimes days, to shake the feeling of loss. I couldn't imagine living for 5.5 years with the idea you've got a child for real and one day waking up to the fact it never even existed at all. I'll argue it can be more difficult to deal with than if the kid was real and it died. Because how do you grief, when people from the outside looking in will think "at least no child was hurt", while surely the feeling of loss is just the same for the dad looking from the inside out, having all his hopes and dreams and visions for a future, for his child, instantly erased from significance as if some cruel punishment by God, a terrible glitch in the Matrix or experiment by Aliens. There's no one to talk to and share experiences with, no places to visit, no belongings to cherish, because it was all happening in this parallel reality only you lived in for 5.5 years. Soulcrushing and heartbreaking.

Similar case in the US, where it was discovered no one had seen the child for a substantial period of time and sadly, the child's custodial parent had murdered him and disposed of the body. In this case solicitors struggled to locate both the child and any associated documents so he reported the child as missing to the police. It was the police investigation that got to the bottom of the issue- that the child wasn't hers and there were no records because he was someone else's child entirely.
