Her father is probably a distal parent.
Distal parenting refers to those parents who want to engage the intellect of their children (by distracting them with toys when they are in distress) rather than hugging and kissing them to shower them with love, which is the case with proximal parents. So instead of comforting Renee, her father will give her a toy and make her forget about her injury on her own.
