JEM. Scout has trouble
dealing with Jem's growing pains (Chapter 12), but her patience is aided by Atticus'
words of advice.
BOO RADLEY.
Scout comes to understand that Boo prefers the isolation within his own home because, as
Jem tells her,

"... he wants to stay
inside." (Chapter
23)
ATTICUS.
Neither Jem nor Scout can understand why Atticus has never told them about his
marksmanship skills, but Scout eventually comes to realize that it's because of his
humble nature. (Chapter
10)
AUNT
ALEXANDRA. Scout recognizes that her aunt is quite different from her
father, possibly because of her belief in the family's "gentle breeding." But she also
sees that Alexandra is capable of being a lady at the most trying times
(Chapter 24), and that she can even be compassionate under duress
(Chapter 28).
WALTER
CUNNINGHAM SR. Scout can't understand how Walter's daddy can be Atticus'
friend one moment and want to hurt him the next (Chapter
16). Atticus blames it on Cunningham's occasional "blind
spots."
MRS.
DUBOSE. Scout discovers that Mrs. Dubose's bad temper is
based on her morphine addiction (or withdrawal), and that her courage is a special kind
(Chapter 11).
