She had a rough childhood, but she managed to deal with it and make the best of it. She conquered standing up for herself and defending others and she also did what was good for herself and for others as well. Scout, Jem, and Dill (a friend of theirs) all decided to follow Atticus because he got a visit from some men and they all looked suspicious. While they were looking for him, Atticus was with Tom Robinson (Atticus is defending this man) at the jailhouse and he was talking to him and telling him what was happening, when all of a sudden, they got a visit by a group of men.

This was too good to miss. I broke away from Jem and ran as fast as I could to Atticus.” (173) Jem and Dill followed behind her telling her to come back. Atticus turns to them and orders them to leave , then realizes that Scout is looking at the group of men. Scout recognizes one of her classmate’s dad, Mr.Cunningham, she tells him something and it made him feel ashamed, which caused the whole group of men to leave because Mr. Cunningham didn’t want to be there anymore. “ ‘Hey, Mr. Cunningham.

My friendly overture had fallen apart. ” (175) She didn’t mean to make him feel that way or cause them to leave. All she wanted to do was talk to him, but after all it was good that she burst out running out of her hiding spot because she saved the life of Tom Robinson.
