My parents unintentionally neglected me. My brother has autism and was diagnosed when I was a baby. My mom once claimed that even as a baby I had such a connection with my brother that I would not cry when he was melting down so she could tend to him. At that age, it's not possible. It's more likely at that age, I'd already learned it wasn't worth crying. I don't know for certain I was neglected as an infant, but I have heard the stories of what my brother was like at that age and I don't think our mother could have tended to both of us. Considering my lack of attachment to my parents, I think it's likely my emotional neglect started that early unintentionally.
