Question

In The Kite Runner, one reason why Baba is so hard on Amir is that _____.

Baba feels guilty about fathering Hassan
Baba was once a champion kite flyer
Baba is a naturally mean and unloved man
Baba wanted his son to be illiterate

Answer 1

because he feel guilty about fathering.

Step-by-step explanation:

Baba feels as if he has failed in creating a "perfect" son - a son who is exactly like he was. Amir is the complete opposite of Baba in his childhood: Amir didn't do anything physical, he didn't stand up for anything, he was weak and cowardly. This shames Baba.
