I will juxtapose Aunt Alexandra and Atticus.
Some similarities between Aunt Alexandra and Atticus is how they both somewhat want the best for the children. In the book the children are taught to read and also write in cursive at a very young age. I believe that this helps show the connection to Aunt Alexandra because what she wants to do is be the Female that Scout can look up to. I think that both of the characters don't really have a lot in common with each other because in the book the two characters seem to clash with each other a bit.
Some differences that the characters have are is how Atticus a lot less racist then how Aunt Alexandra is. In the book Atticus teaches the kids how being different is a good thing and how to not judge people by there appearance. In lieu Aunt Alexandra is more ruthless and only cares about what she things instead of what others think. In the book she judges Calpurnia for the way that she looks and acts.
Atticus has a very interesting relationship with Scout in the book they both enjoy each-others company however can sometimes bump heads however its like any other family relationship. The relationship that Scout has with Aunt Alexandra is defiantly more negative. In the book Aunt Alexandra is very demanding and I don't think that Scout likes her because she describes her like Mount Everest, cold and there.
The effects that Aunt Alexandra has made on Scout are more negative. So far in the book Aunt Alexandra has slowly been striping the children away there freedom. I believe this because in the book when Scout and Jem wan't to go visit Calpurnia Aunt Alexandra immediately says no in a rude way thus leaving me to believe that Scout doesn't really like her. Atticus has left more of a positive effect on Scout. Atticus cares more for Scout mainly because that's his daughter and because she is the youngest. In the book Atticus gives Scout more freedom and advocates that she goes and explore and have fun and isn't as strict as Aunt Alexandra.
