The correct answer is neglect.

Individuals with a childhood history of neglect are at risk for social anxiety disorder because neglected children at an early age start believing that they are rejected by their immediate loved ones. Due to this, neglected individuals grow up avoiding and fearing social relationships since they are afraid that they will be rejected again.
