Question

THE STORY OF ICARUS AND DAEDALUS

Answer 1

Answer: Yes, he was a worried and caring father.

Explanation:

Two key factors can support this claim. First, Daedalus was in charge of making the wings in the tower where he was captured with his son Icarus. He had so much material (wax and feathers) to make only one wing. After he finished making the wings, he decided to give them to his son rather than take them for himself. Another claim that supports the aforementioned thesis is the advice Daedalus gave to Icarus before using the wings. He pointed out to him not to fly too close to the sun because the heat could melt the wax, and the wings would fall apart in that case. The aforementioned theses are sufficient evidence to support the fact that Daedalus was a responsible father.
