We get to know Scout during the first few chapters of To Kill a Mockingbird. Scout has a lot of trouble on her first day of school and she doesn't get along with her teacher, Miss Caroline. When Scout is upset about school, Atticus gives her some advice for dealing with the situation. He says, "...if you can learn a simple trick, Scout, you'll really get along a lot better with all kinds of folks. You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... until you climb into his skin and walk around in it."
Do you agree or disagree with Atticus' advice? Why? What can you tell about Atticus (as a father and as a person) by his statement? What other advice would you give Scout?

I agree with his advice because he says that you never judge a person until you see it from their point of veiw. I can tell that Atticus cares about other peoples feelings. I think that Scout should try school for at least a week to see if he likes it. That is some advice i would give Scout.
I agree with the advice because you cant judge a person without giving them the chanse to tell you there half the story.I think that socut should care for other peoples feelings adn try to stay in school for a longer time period, that is the advice i would give him
I agree with this text because like genesis said, you cant judge a book by its cover. Scout should just try to ingore people and TRY to get zip threw school instead of trying to take the critizim to head. And i think Acttius should give her better advice then what he had gave her.
i agree because u cant judge people all the time if u dont know them like that
