I think that Baba expected a child more like Hassan, looking to please and always do the right thing. He wanted him to be strong and manly, whereas Amir is kind of a coward and would not do the right thing if others felt different.

But in doing so they had to leave their home and everything that means behind to begin completely anew. This causes Baba to have to come to terms with having lost not only his wealth, but everything he has spent his life creating. I also believe that with the loss of Baba's wife, (Amir's mother) Baba had connected the world around him in order to deal with her death. And leaving his home, his world, he had truly lost her. it was this coupled with the loss of his home that drove baba's health into degeneration (which was also a physical representation of his depression). While this is true, Amir came to America in order to try to bury his past, to forget the horrors of his former home, and to forget what he had done to Hassan.

The path to redemption is individual--other people cannot forgive you and make you feel better. You must forgive yourself. It is up to yourself to determine what it is that will make you feel "good again". You decide if you have changed/learned your lesson from the experience... You are responsible for taking it and turning it into a lesson for the self. So, Amir did reach redemption; his character changed because of the mistakes he made in the past.
