Spock and Sarek never resolved their conflict.

Of all the father-son relationships in Star Trek, the relationship between Sarek and Spock is the most tragic. When he's first introduced in Star Trek: The Original Series season 2, episode 15, "Journey to Babel", Sarek had been estranged from his son Spock for 18 years. After Spock saved Sarek's life, father and son eventually reconciled their differences. However, it was later revealed in Star Trek: The Next Generation that political differences had separated them once again.

When Sarek became ill during the events of "Journey to Babel," Spock saved his father's life with a successful blood transfusion. After this, their relationship improved, although Sarek did not apologize for his opposition to Spock joining Starfleet until much later. After Spock's death in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Sarek sought out Admiral James T. Kirk to request retrieve Spock's body from the Genesis planet.

Why Sarek Was Close To Michael Burnham In Discovery, Not Spock In TNG's "Unification Part II" it's revealed that Spock and his father never shared a mind meld, which is surprising to Picard. Star Trek: Discovery later reveals that Michael Burnham shared something with Spock's father that was described by Sarek as "more than a mind meld".
