Mostly minor examples. Kyra's mother gaslights her into eating her poisoned soup by insisting she stay in her room to "get better", and that her soup shouldn't "taste" funny as her daughter claims.
The doctors who notice the marks and abrasion on Cole clearly seem to think his mother is abusing him, even after she protests that she is not, and recommend a social worker.

When the main kid is hiding in his red tent from a ghost, a little girl ghost who is vomiting profusely appears with no warning. It is all over her clothes as well. There are no loud wretching noises. She stays on screen for the duration of that scene but there is no vomit for the rest of the movie.
