Answer:
Sadao's father was a very influential man. He shared a mature bond with his son. He never joked or played with him. He was a concerned father who wished to see his son achieve great heights in life. He sent Sadao to America to learn medicine and surgery at the age of 22. This shows that he valued education. It can also be said that he was a true patriot as he made sure that the girl Safo married was a pure Japanese before giving consent.All the things in his room-the furniture, sheets, clothes were traditionally Japanese. He wanted to instill national loyalty in Sadao'heart from a very young age that is why he often took him to the islands stating that they were the stepping stones of Japan's future. As stated by the gardener he was also a lover of plants as his moss garden was the finest in the entire nation.
On the whole it can be concluded that was a caring father, a Japanese citizen in the true sense with utmost loyalty for his country and a special love for its culture
