Yes, I have also observed there is also an awful lot of "Epistemic and Testimonial Injustice", defined as "exclusion and silencing; systematic distortion or misrepresentation of one’s meanings or contributions; undervaluing of one's status or standing in communicative practices; unfair distinctions in authority; and unwarranted distrust", when it comes to people with chronic conditions trying to navigate healthcare systems. Also, may I recommend a book recently published by a children's psychologist friend of mine, Louis Weinstock, it is called "How the World is Making Our Children Mad and What to Do About It: A field guide to raising empowered children and growing a more beautiful world" - I think this would be a good fit.
