Kezia finding her father frightening was not only due to his strictness but also due to what?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The child's limited understanding and lack of communication

The governing concept is that fear can arise from limited understanding and weak communication, not simply from a parent’s actual cruelty. Kezia notices her father’s stern face, loud voice and formal routine, but she has few relaxed conversations with him. Because she cannot interpret his intentions, his ordinary seriousness appears threatening. The contrast with the Macdonald family later helps her recognise that families express affection differently. Still, the immediate reason for her fear is the child’s incomplete understanding combined with the lack of communication. Option A is therefore correct. The story does not say that the father is always away, that the Macdonalds are absent, or that the grandmother’s feelings create Kezia’s fear.
