My father who was the rock on which the family had been built, was sobbing like the tiniest child. This is an example of a simile. The author  is using the words like to describe to thoughts. The two thoughts would be "my father" and "tiniest child. Before it had stated that the father was a rock and now he was "sobbing like the tiniest child". The father is impacted by a certain situation that makes him emotionally unstable.
