Kezia avoiding her father can be read as which deeper psychological sign?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Lack of trust and a defensive response formed by fear

The governing concept is defensive behaviour caused by emotional insecurity. Kezia avoids her father, stammers in his presence and tries not to attract his attention because she expects criticism or punishment. Avoidance is therefore not proof that she dislikes family life or prefers the Macdonalds; it is a protective response produced by fear and insufficient trust. Option A is correct because it connects her outward action with her inner psychological state. Her later change is important: when her father comforts her after the nightmare, she discovers his tenderness and begins to feel safer. This contrast shows that communication and affection can reduce defensive distance in a parent-child relationship.
