Good explanation thank you.
This is how is was for me. I got nothing from mother and by the age of 7 realised she hated me.
And I hated her back. When she died I felt nothing but relief.
Father gave a little more (not much) but enough for me to think l 'loved him'

People seem to find it strange that I HATE mother.
Mother gave me nothing. Nothing. All she did was destroy that little timid girl.

Never a cuddle never a kiss or hug. That machine did not pay out.
No Stockholm syndrome for me.
