What is shown as the main basis of a parent-child relationship in the story?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Understanding and love

The story presents understanding and love as the true basis of a healthy parent-child relationship. Kezia initially sees only her father’s strict voice and frightening appearance, so fear prevents her from recognising his affection. As events unfold, especially when he comforts her after the nightmare, she learns to look beyond outward behaviour and understand his emotional nature. The Macdonald family also shows that love can be expressed openly, while Kezia’s father expresses it quietly. Option B is therefore correct. Fear, silence and punishment may appear in parts of the relationship, but they do not represent its deepest foundation. The story’s final message is that empathy and a willingness to understand can reveal love hidden behind different personalities.
