In the story, the experience of safety within family is linked with what?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The father's affectionate protection

The experience of safety is connected with the father’s affectionate protection, especially in the final scene. Kezia wakes frightened after a nightmare and feels vulnerable. Instead of scolding her or sending her away, her father responds practically and tenderly: he takes her to his room, gives her warmth, and lets her sleep beside him. This action changes the meaning of his earlier strictness in her mind. She realises that the same father who seemed frightening is also a dependable source of comfort and security. Strict discipline may explain her earlier fear, but it does not create the emotional safety described in the question. Grandmother and the Macdonald children have supporting roles, yet the specific experience within the family is shown through the father’s protection. Hence option B is correct.
