Perspective of Aunt Alexandra

Dear Diary,

I just told the kids that I was staying for feminine figure in the house. Jean did not like this. I started to meet some new ladies in town. I invite them over to give Jean a little bit of a taste how being a female is. I can't believe that poor Jean has been in company with two boys who could not teach her the way women acts. Young Jem is starting to see the light he is acting more and more like a young gentlemen everyday. I over heard Jean asking Atticus if she could go over to Calpurnia's house. Which to my understanding she is a maid to them. I had to step in and tell her that she would not be able to. In retaliation she decides to tell me that she was not talking to me and turns back to get Atticus's answer. I don't know why she likes to antagonize me so much. But I just shook it off and started again with helping Jean. I also believe that Jeremy and Jean should learn more about the Finch's. They now nothing about there family. All they know about is the people they have personally met.

Atticus finally tells Jean that as long as I am here she will have to listen to what I tell her. I have just acquired a new threat to Jean. Jeremy and Jean get in this huge fight. Jean not even thinking or acting like a lady attacks Jeremy. I watch and see what happens. Atticus did his job though, he extracted them from each other and sent them to bed. I would have done worse but I think that was a step in he right direction. When Jean goes to her room there was a boy emerges from under her bed. Atticus decides to leave him and give him some food. As long as the boys sleep in the same room it was better but if I was Atticus I would have sent him right home. No questions asked. But tonight Atticus looked very pensive.
