Both.
Probably neglect more-so though, because I relate that to children whereas I relate apathy toward politics.

Well, I think Apathy is a condition, where as neglect is knowing something and failing to act. I have to say neglect.

Between the two you've show cased... I definitely despise neglect.
We have responsibility in every situation and neglect just can't be tolerated, (at least by me.)
Given a parent and child relationship, there are rights and responsibilities on both sides; any failure to live up to ones part of the bargain, how ever that might be decided, is a neglect that causes the relationship to temporally suffer as a result. Similarly, in a employer/employee relationship these dynamics remain intact.
There is also responsibility toward our environment, our homes and our neighbor's home, public property and nature, our places of work and entertainment; neglecting our responsibility to take a full part in caring for our physical surroundings is poor repayment for what they yield freely to us daily.
Dereliction is high on my list of "no no's."
Nuff said..?
Thanks,

I despise apathy more. Apathy is destroying this nation(usa) faster than neglect.

Your question overcomes me with apathy so I will neglect to give an answer

both...apathy says I dont care about you and yours. Neglect says I dont care about me and mine. They, to me, are two sides of the same coin. Neither is useful for helping others or ourselves

Apathy, because it nullifies your humanity.
