Answer: Man vs. society

There are several categories in which we can classify conflict. In this case, the conflict is an instance of "man vs. society." "Man" refers to the protagonist of the story (in this case, the father). On the other hand, society refers to any social construct, such as the government, society at large or a particular organization, such as a school or a club.
