Icarus disobeys his father, Daedalus, primarily due to his youthful desire for freedom and adventure. The allure of flying high and experiencing the thrill of the sun and sky leads him to ignore his father's warnings about the dangers of flying too close to the sun. This act of rebellion highlights the tension between the aspirations of youth and the wisdom of experience, ultimately resulting in Icarus's tragic downfall. His disobedience serves as a cautionary tale about the consequences of hubris and ignoring parental guidance.
