Through the first chapters we can see there is no doubt and obviously that Amir and his father have a distant relationship which is not healthy at all.
For one thing, let’s take a look at their totally different characteristic that probably is one reason they do not have a healthy relationship. Baba is a man has ambitious and confident to do everything he liked, such as soccer and his own business. In contrary to his Baba, Amir’s character is totally opposite form his father. He loves reading and writing that Baba didn’t give any cares about his talent about literary. There is a perfect example from the book, ‘If I hadn't seen the doctor pull him out of my wife with my own eyes, I'd never believe he's my son. (P. 23)’ which is happened in Buzkashi tournament when Amir let his father down again Baba said to other people. I guess this is one of the reasons that Baba does not like his own son. Also, Amir knows that his father hated him because Baba’s wife was died when she give birth to Amir. Here is the evidence proofed on Page 19 “The truth of it was,I always felt like Baba hated me...I had killed his beloved wife...” Another detail from book can support my point about their distant relationship. On page 32, Amir trying to tell Baba about the elaborate story he spend a long time to written and he expect some applaud. But, Baba didn’t give any cares about his writing even didn’t look at it. I can imagine that it is such a shock to a little young boy, it is hurt.
All in all, from the facts we talked above, we can see how unhealthy the relationship between Amir and Baba is.

I agree with you. Their relationship is unhealthy. And they have much difference between them.
