It is a wise father that knows his own child.
这是一个强调句,但是因为强调的是主语,怎么判断他不是定语从句呢?
赞同陈才老师的解答,另补充几点:这是个强调句,这个习语来自于古谚,但你不能把它当作句型来模仿造句。如何判断是定语从句,按照国内的教法,可以这样区分。你把It is ... that... 去掉句子成分仍然完整,就是强调句。例如:It is a wise father that knows his own child. 去掉后为:A wise father knows his own child.仍然完整,所以是强调句。It is the house where she lives. 这是定语从句,因为你去掉it is...where... 后就不成句子了。

It is a wise father that knows his own child =There is hardly a wise father that knows his own child.
再聪明的父亲也未必了解自己的孩子。
实际上以上It is … that … 可以理解为否定句,即可以理解为:It is = There is hardly,即意思是“不存在,几乎没有”。
类似还有下面的句子。
It is a good workman that never blunders.=There is hardly a good workman that never blunders.
智者千虑必有一失。
It is a good horse that never stumbles.=There is hardly a good horse that never stumbles
金无足赤,人无完人。
备注:以上的“It is ... that...”结构的谚语于普通强调句不同,它具有以下三个特点,按照否定句理解就可以了。
(1)被强调的部分是不定冠词修饰,表示泛指。
(2)中心词一般会有一个形容词修饰。
(3)It is…that一般表示普遍哲理或者真理。
