What balanced conclusion is found when father's strict behaviour is read with empathy?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: He appears strict, but also has affection and concern for his daughter

A balanced reading considers both a character’s visible behaviour and the circumstances behind it. Kezia first sees her father as frightening because he speaks sternly, scolds her, and seems distant. Later, when she has a nightmare, he takes her to his bed and comforts her. This action reveals affection and concern that he does not express openly. Therefore, option B is correct: his strict manner does not prove that he is loveless. Option A is an unfair one-sided judgement. Option C wrongly describes Macdonald’s playful manner, while option D has no support in the story. Empathy helps Kezia recognise hidden love.
