Any PTS who fails to either handle or disconnect from the SP who is making him or her a PTS is, by failing to do so, guilty of a Suppressive Act. By far one of the greatest tools Scientology has to keep members is the policy of Disconnection.
If you join the church and have friends or family that do not approve of Scientology you will be forced to sever all ties with them.
When someone leaves Scientology for any reason they are often "Declared" a SP, or Suppressive Person. As a SP anyone you knew inside the church is forced to disconnect from you.
Essentially by leaving the church many end up leaving everyone they've known or cared about during their time as a scientologist.
In addition to the Disconnection Policy members of the Sea Org may be forced to move far away from other family members or be denied the ability to speak directly to them. More information on the Sea Org and what it does to families can be found here.
