Readers can learn to follow the examples of the good parent and they can now avoid doing bad things to their own children. Atticus and Calpurnia had done their part as great parents and surely Jem and Scout would grow up to be good parents themselves. But for Bob Ewell, his children would probably grow up thinking that what their father did to them was a good act and they will follow his examples, thus making them bad parents and bad examples for their future children. A good parent will never let their children be astray from the right path and will always try to teach them the right ways and how to be good parents themselves in the
He knew if Temas didn’t learn this, he would forever doubt himself. Another way that Medoto showed courageousness was when he proved how he felt to Temas, no matter how hard it was for him. “He smiled. It is no good to lie, I wanted you to fail, but when I saw you hesitate I could not bear it because I remembered my own hour of fear. It was then I threw the stone, not to shame you, but to save you from shame.” (369) He was brave enough to tell him, he himself was scared.
Courageous In To Kill a Mockingbird, Harper Lee presents the idea that courage means fighting for what is right, no matter what the cost.” Atticus Finch displays an array of different ideas and themes he believes are part of fulfilling a wonderful life to his children, Scout and Jem. Going through life with courage is his main goal for them. Atticus knows when he is faced with conflict and knows how to handle it. When he is first given the case of Tom Robinson, he shows stupendous amounts of courage. His own family disapproved of it.
Amir is the character that is extremely similar to his father Buba, because they both have committed sins in their past. Amir by, watching Hassan his own half-brother get raped or Buba, having sex with his servant’s wife. In the beginning of the book Amir is a person who won’t stand up for himself let alone for any of his friends. Amir is a very selfish and un-loyal person to Hassan, whereas Hassan is a very loyal and selfless person.

His plan even comes to Clarence in a dream and he still cannot see that Richard is the one who is behind him being in prison and for his death that is coming very soon. He blames his self for the deaths of his father in law and brother and believes that the dream is the evidence of his sins. “Ah, keeper, keeper, I have done these things that now give evidence against my soul for Edward’s sake, and see how he requites me! O God! If my deep pray’rs cannot appease thee, but thou wilt be avenged on my misdeeds, yet execute thy wrath in me alone.
This quote is important because it showed that Bob had no respect for Atticus, and his embarrassment in court was his main priority in getting him back. "Too proud to fight, you nigger-lovin' bastard. "(272) He is saying that he knows that he was the one that raped his daughter Mayella, and takes out his anger on Atticus, and on behalf of the black community
Which is why he remained silent for a decade after his voice was played over and over again on the news. Dennis Rader knew that strangling victims and binding them was wrong, he feared police catching him, and Dennis didn’t care if he lost the respect of his church, his scouts or family. Rader also let the sexual pleasure he gained from the crimes control his actions. It was his choice to plan out the murders and follow through with them.

He mainly shows courage in Tom Robinson’s case. Atticus knows that he is not going to win the case but he knows that Tom is innocent and if he doesn’t fight for him then no one will, just like Mrs. Dubose and her battle against morphine, he is “licked” before he begins. He shows true courage when he is against the town to defend Tom because a majority of the white people living in Maycomb want Tom dead. He understood that taking this lawsuit would make a few people turn against him since he is defending and believing a Negro’s word rather than a white man. Atticus also showed courage when he went to protect Tom in the jail house, without having to think twice about his decision he rushed to the jail house.
