Then Atticus said "Try fighting with your head for a change." (lee 101) This example shows that Atticus doesn 't want Scout to get into anymore fights at school; instead he wants her to think about what she is doing first. Whenever Cecil Jacobs called Atticus a name Scout got mad and she was going to beat him up , but she remembered what Atticus said and she calmed down and walked away. More and more she is put to the test every day but she

She says that before long, Scout will start acting, dressing, and behaving more like a lady. The kids clearly do not like their Aunt around, as they have said many times just her presence makes many days gloomy. Based on the evidence from the book, Calpurnia is a better mother figure than Aunt

In To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee, Scout matures throughout the book as she matures her innocent nature is gradually lost and she realizes how senseless and brutal people can be. In the beginning she has still not seen any of the bad things people do in the world. Her innocence at is first shown when Dill asks Scout to marry him because they don’t now what marriage really is they both go along with it and say that they are married from then on. Another example of Scout’s innocence is when after she goes to school and gets in trouble she comes home and tells Atticus that she does not want to go to school anymore.

Through her mother’s criticisms, her lack of confidence, and her desire to fit in with the community, Charlotte is shown to be insecure. Charlotte’s insecurity is a partial result of her mother’s disapproving and unresponsive nature. Unlike Charlotte’s father, who listens attentively and enthusiastically to Charlotte’s day at school, Charlotte’s mother shows no interest. She simply gives a half-hearted comment, “without emphasis of any kind”(71), then changes the subject. Additionally, when Charlotte is distressed over Ms. Hancock's death, her mother gets irritated and blames her for “disturbing the even tenor of [their] home”(80).

He has to face the problems and it hits him hard. Because he doesn 't understand how there can be so much evil in the world. Scout is a young girl that doesn 't follow the gender role of “being a girl” which was weird for the time period that To Kill a Mockingbird is set in. Throughout the novel her Aunt Alexandra tells her that the way she act or the way she is dressed is unlady like, but Scout does not care. “Aunt Alexandra’s vision of my deportment involved playing with small stoves, tea sets, and wearing the Add - A - Pearl necklace she gave me when I was born; furthermore, I should be a ray of sunshine in my father’s lonely life.” Her aunt always wants scout to be this perfect little girl who

26) Since Atticus is representing Tom Robinson, the kids are getting picked on. Atticus gets called a "nigger lover "by the town and even his own relatives. Francis tell scout that her grandma says Atticus is a "nigger lover quote and he 's ruining the family. Then Scout gets to a fight with him only to be at fault in the end.

Scout was beginning to put away her tomboyish acts and started acting like a young lady, "She seemed glad to see me when I appeared in the kitchen, and by watching her I began to think there was some skill involved in being a girl". This quote can be seen as a point where Scout started seeing being a girl a good thing rather than bad. Her brother Jem used to make fun of Scout when she would act like a girl, saying that girls are weak. Making this change from being a tough tomboy to a tough girl is a pretty big deal. In chapter 24, when Aunt Alexandra is hosting her missionary tea at the Finch’s Residence, Scout is inside instead of being outside to avoid it.

In the book to kill a mockingbird there is a character named Dubose she is strict and ill old lady.

In third grade, Scout and her classmates talk about current events, and someone brings up Adolf Hitler. Her teacher, Miss Gates, explains how terrible he is for persecuting the Jewish people. Miss Gates hates Hitler for persecuting the Jews, but at the courthouse she explained that blacks needed to be put in there place (Lee 243-247). Scout is confused by this comment, noting that it is controversial in itself. Her teacher hates Adolf Hitler because he oppresses the Jews but at the same time she tramples the African Americans without reason.
