amir says about his choosing to study english againist babas wishes. " i didn't want to sacrifice for baba anymore". the last time i did that i damned myself. how do you feel about this statement do you think his "sacrifice"was for baba? or himself?

Sacrifice is a reoccurring motif in this book. I think Amir has been sacrificing for Baba all his life. He was a boy trying to live up to standards that were not in his identity. Amir had to care for Baba in America but he refused to let Baba's biases choose the rest of his life. Amir wanted to be a writer and was no longer willing to live up to his father's expectations about what a man should do for an occupation.
