How does empathy build trust in the father-daughter relationship?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: By giving support during fear

Empathy builds trust when a person notices another person's fear and responds with care instead of criticism. In the story, Kezia is frightened after her nightmare, and her father does not leave her alone or punish her. He lets her stay close to him and comforts her, allowing her to experience his protective and affectionate side. This support makes her feel safe, so the emotional distance between them begins to shrink. Option A is therefore correct. Increasing punishment would strengthen fear, while silence would leave her feelings unrecognised. Comparison might confuse or embarrass her, but it cannot create the security needed for trust. The episode shows that understanding feelings and offering reassurance can transform a child's view of a strict parent.
