Hans Jr. is so blinded by his association with and loyalty to the Nazi party that he can only see his father as a coward who refuses to stand up for what the Nazis believe and thus is not willing to stand up for what Hans Jr. believes is "right." He does not approve of his father's actions in this instance.

Hans Jr. thinks it is a dangerous mistake for Hans not to be more aggressive in hisapplication to join the Nazi party, and accuses his father of not caring about Germany. Seeing Liesel reading quietly, he asserts that she should be reading MKPF instead. Calling his father a coward, he storms out of the house.
