Parental detachment disorder

The Supreme Council on Family Psychology defines parental detachment disorder as "an interpersonal disorder characterized by a pervasive pattern of emotional absence, rigidity, or neglect by a parent toward (a) particular child(ren) and likewise by a child toward a parent." Persons with this disorder tend to suppress their emotions toward each other, fail to exhibit empathy toward each other, and harbor deep-seated resentment.
