What kind of empathy does the Macdonald family show?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Affectionate and playful

The Macdonald family provides a contrast to Kezia’s first impression of her own father. Mr Macdonald interacts with his children openly, plays with them, and shows affection without making them feel intimidated. This behaviour communicates warmth and emotional security, so it is best described as affectionate and playful. A frightening or punitive family would rely on fear, harshness, or punishment, while a neglectful family would fail to give attention and care. The example helps Kezia understand that a father can be loving even when he is not constantly using soft words. Thus, option C accurately identifies the kind of empathy shown.
