Resignation syndrome is a rare psychological condition that afflicts traumatised children when they are overwhelmed by stress. They stop eating, they stop drinking, they stop talking and they stop toileting themselves. They essentially go into hibernation. Minister, how many of the children you are detaining on Nauru are exhibiting these symptoms, and how many have been diagnosed with resignation syndrome?
