5) My Favourite Character in “To Kill a Mockingbird”

In case the comment has not been moderated, here it is:

"Dear Jian Shern,

Firstly, I feel that you could elaborate on how Arthur Radley "makes Scout understand how society interprets the actions of others". As you mentioned, Arthur is a rather passive character in To Kill A Mockingbird, thus, these understandings which he passes on to Scout are through his actions, I presume. Perhaps you would like to state some examples of what Arthur did in order to make Scout understand how society interprets the actions of others.

Next, I would like to disagree with you that Arthur has "phenominal (it's phenomenal by the way) patience" with Scout and Jem. Arthur shut himself up in the Radley House, how was he to know that he was being viewed as a monster by Scout and Jem? Instead, I think his compassion towards Scout and Jem is perhaps because he wants to be friends with them, but does not dare approach them directly, and also because he had had a bad childhood and wanted to experience how a better childhood was like, as well as to ensure that other children, like Scout and Jem, would not have to go through what he did.
