Read this passage from Dragonwings by Laurence Yep.

Only once during all those trips did we have any trouble. Some demon boys were out in the street. They stooped as if to pick up things to throw, and Father whispered to me to sit up straight and not show I was afraid. The demon boys called out some things, but we ignored them until we had passed them by. A rock whizzed by my ear and hit Red Rabbit in the side. He snorted, but plodded on as steadily as before.

Based on the actions in this passage, what inference can be made about the narrator’s father?

He is too afraid to stand up to the “demon” boys.
He is strong and confident even in times of trouble.
He is unaware of the trouble caused by the boys.
He is more concerned about looking brave than being safe.
