I think Weiss suffers from a classic case of 'fractured family'. I imagine her mother died, which embittered her father, making him seem completely cold and professional, even to Weiss. As for a sibling, I'm thinking that maybe Weiss did have a sibling that later became estranged from the family.

What I had in mind: A brother, who was for all accounts a genius and a prodigy, but who never got along with his dad. Their incessant fights eventually reached a climax, with the brother storming out and never returning, leaving Weiss the sole remaining heiress. Maybe Weiss was on good terms with her hypothetical brother, and after he was gone, her father became even more distant. Thus her loneliness.
