Detachment

No I will not cognitively reframe what is happening to me so you don't have to acknowledge what is happening to me. You'll get nothing but child murder.
Hym "Not detachment. Not cognitive reframing. Not contrition. I don't care about feeling happier. I don't care about productivity. I care about not having to murder a kid to get you to do the thing YOU WILL DO if I murder a kid. Which is why you're not doing it. The child is acceptable loses to everyone but the person it's going to happen to and it isn't going to be your kids so you don't have to care. It sacrificing someone else's kid so a person you don't like won't succeed. There is no greater good you're serving by doing this. Hey, by the way, you see that stuff bullying commercial?"

Detriment of the Doubt

1) The opposite of "benefit of the doubt,"

Instead of someone assuming you have the best intentions and are a good person, or that you meant well, they instead assume the opposite; that is to say, they assume you meant them harm, you have bad intentions, are a bad person, and so on.

2) The lack of offering the benefit of the doubt.

3) assuming someone is guilty before proven innocent, instead of the other way around.
Ashley gave Johnny the detriment of the doubt when she assumed that he was an obsessed jerk rather than thinking that there was a misunderstanding on both sides due to both of their actions, which led him to believe he had hurt her and that she was better off without him, and led her to believe that he was showing his true colors after several years of good friendship. They were both wrong, and lost their friendship due to not communicating.
