As for the Sixth Sense movie, I always thought her stepmother was trying to kill her, not keep her sick.

That was the stepmother? I thought it was her real mother?
How did you know she was the stepmother, not her real mother?
The father even says to her, "You were keeping her sick."
I'm not actually sure, it's been a long time since I've watched the movie. It was my first impression. She, whether the mom or stepmom, didn't look too sad at the girl's funeral.
My parents, who are both psychologists, said it was Münchhausen-by-proxy when they saw the movie. She was keeping her daughter sick in order to get sympathy and attention. I think the fact that her daughter died was probably an accident. And if you notice, they say that the younger daughter had started getting sick. Since the older one had died, the mother moved onto the younger one.
