She also thinks this is why they act out, because Atticus hasn't taught them enough family morals to raise them right. https://nowcomment.com/documents/194649?scroll_to=1814168 https://nowcomment.com/documents/194649?scroll_to=1814168 Fri, 17 Apr 2020 13:30:20 -0400 Calpurnia thinks that it would put her aside from her other colored folk and make her feel out of place if she talked like she normally does. https://nowcomment.com/documents/194649?scroll_to=1814149 https://nowcomment.com/documents/194649?scroll_to=1814149 Fri, 17 Apr 2020 13:28:01 -0400 Aunt Alexander thinks Atticus failed with portraying the importance of the Finch family in Maycomb. https://nowcomment.com/documents/194647?scroll_to=1813105 https://nowcomment.com/documents/194647?scroll_to=1813105 Aunt Alexander thinks that since Scout and Jem act like some wild hooligans that they have not been taught any family morals and that Atticus has failed to teach them about the Finch family legacy. She thinks they're going to end up just like their Cousin Joshua, who had made an assassination attempt on the president and failed, getting him sent to jail. It costed the family five hundred bucks to get him out. The portrayal of him is right because he did try to commit murder and that could come from having wild tendencies and anger issues. The Finch family has a whole lineup of anger issue family members, including Jem.

But Scout thinks that it would've been better if a women tried to do this. Fri, 17 Apr 2020 09:12:37 -0400 This is probably the big mystery surrounding this chapter. Boo Radley in this book is seen to be a psycho, which he is, yet he still is nice to Jem and Scout even when they trespassed. So, what is Boo Radley's true character. https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1752987 https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1752987 Thu, 02 Apr 2020 18:00:40 -0400 I also now wonder why she couldn't hear his cries. Maybe Jem is being more closed off not wanting anyone to know his emotions. Why is that? https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1752986 https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1752986 Mon, 26 Oct 2020 14:53:38 -0400 Scout's starting to listen to Atticus's advice more and becoming more empathetic towards Jem and others. https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1752982 https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1752982 Fri, 03 Apr 2020 14:21:21 -0400
