To Kill A Mockingbird Paragraph
Paragraph (written in complete sentence/correct paragraph format): I have two questions. My first question is why did the mob leave? I believe that one of the main reasons why the mob left was because of Scout. Scout would not leave the prison even after the mob threatened her and Jem. In response to one of the men trying to remove Jem from the prison, she kicked the man very hard in the leg. Scout made the men feel guilty about what they were planning on doing. One man in particular Scout focused on; Walter Cunningham. She sought him out and talked about his son, this proved very effective because she made him think about his son. In the process of making Walter think about his son, it also made him indirectly think about what he would
think of what he was doing at the prison. The second reason why I think the mob left was because of the children’s presence. The mob was not willing to beat up or kill a man in front of kids or the children of the man they were going to beat up; this is why the mob tried to throw out Jem and Scout. When the kids decided to stay, this made the mob rethink and think about their own families, especially when Scout was talking with Walter Cunningham. The second question I have pertains to the reason why Jem stood up to Atticus. One of the main reasons that Jem stood up to Atticus is because he is growing up. Jem is going through a point in his life when he does not wants to make his own choices and not have to listen to what other people tell him to do. Jem is trying to be the bigger man and diffuse the situation before his father or Scout get hurt. He wants to make his dad proud and to be like him, and he wants to be helpful. The second reason why Jem stood up to Atticus was because the people he loved were there. Scout would not leave, and Jem was not going to leave her alone or look wimpier than Scout and back out of a fight. He also believes that his presence can help the situation. Jem knows that if he and Scout leave Atticus will probably be hurt, and he does not to let anything bad happen to him. I answered my two questions. The mob left because of Scout and the presence of children, and Jem stood up to Atticus because he is growing up, and he does not want anything bad to happen to Atticus or Scout.
