kite runner, Early in the story, Baba says to Rahim, “A boy who won’t stand up for himself becomes a man who can’t stand up to anything” (22). How do the events of these chapters connect to this quote? Is Amir a coward or a product of his environment- or both? Why?

1. After they went to watch the Buzkashi game where a carcass was put in a circle and some horse riders would compete to take the carcass from the person at the center, Amir cried as a rider fell and was trampled upon by his horse. This infuriated Baba who told his friend Rahim these words, “A boy who won’t stand up for himself becomes a man who can’t stand up to anything”.

2. Both. Amir was a coward and that was caused by the environment he grew up in. He lacked the affection of his father and that affected his confidence.

Explanation:

Amir lost his mother when he was born and so did Hassan a servant in his home. He lacked the affection of his father because his father believed that he did not resemble him in behavior. His choice of career was different from that of his fathers' who loved soccer. Amir wanted to be a writer and poet but could not defend his choice to his father.

Baba did not think that Amir would turn out to be successful because he found it difficult to defend himself. This could have caused Amir's lack of confidence because of the absence of love from his father and the demise of his mother.
