Hi,
Harold has a very special, intelligent, and somehow strange son; David, opposite of himself, so he has no idea how to behave towards him. Does the bold sentence mean " he doesn't know how to appear so complicated, as his father? I'm not sure about the meaning of complicated here! does it mean he should not act or appear plainly?
One night at the dance hall of a holiday camp, David, who had only 8 years old, won Twist Prize,

. Then thehe was jiggering so fast, it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or in pain
Many thanks.compere began a slow clap, and made a joke that rang through the dance hall, so that everyone roared. Bewildered, Harold had smiled too; not knowing in that moment how to be anything so complicated as his son's father.
