To mention only a few: an abhorrence of changes, a fear of anything that could endanger his life and that of those he loved (diseases, bad weather, burglars etc), a strong desire to keep his loved ones close by (as Emma had to fight his reluctance to let her marry by pointing out that he would thus gain a son, close by in case thieves tried to break in).

In "Emma" by Jane Austen, Emma's father is portrayed as a hypochondriac who is overly concerned about his health. He is also described as overly dependent on Emma and very anxious about change or disruption to his routine. Additionally, he has a tendency to be overly indulgent towards Emma, often giving in to her wishes and desires.
