“You expect me to stop this boy Mitchell and the others from messing with you?”I didn’t say anything.“You want it stopped, Paul,
” he said, “then you stop it. This here is between you and Mitchell and whatever other boys. I’m not getting into it.”My daddy was true to his word too. More than one time he saw me with a busted lip or a bruised eye, but he showed me no sympathy. He just looked at me and said, “See you didn’t stop it yet.” After a while, though, he said, “Paul, you don’t stop this soon, those boys are going to kill you.” —The Land,

In this passage, Paul's father talks to Paul about his conflicts with other boys. Consider Paul's father's motivation and use the drop-down menus to answer the questions.
What is a reason that Paul's father wants to stay out of Paul's situation?
Is Paul's father's motivation intrinsic or extrinsic?
1) The reason pual's dad want to stay out of the situation because he feels the pual needs to grow up and stand up for himself instead of his dad having to deal with the situation for him
2) I would say his dad motivation is more of intrinsic since his dad is motivating pual to stand up for himself it deals with the situation
Explanation:
extrinsic wouldn't really be dealing with the way his dad is motivating him
