How does the story encourage the reader to understand the father's punishment?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To see the misunderstanding behind it without justifying it

The governing concept is empathetic and balanced moral judgement. Kezia cuts up her father's important papers while trying to make a pin-cushion for him, so the reader understands both the damage and her innocent intention. Her father has a reason to be angry, but the child's limited understanding and fear also deserve recognition. Empathy therefore means seeing the misunderstanding and the emotional circumstances without claiming that the punishment is automatically fair or harmless. Option A expresses this distinction between understanding and approval. B ignores Kezia's feelings, C overlooks a central event in the plot, and D trivializes her distress and the seriousness of the misunderstanding.
