Through Atticus' actions you can see that he is a sensitive and loving father. He really cares about his children's values and teaches them important life lessons. When they get air rifles for christmas he says "Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mocking bird."(90) This shows that Atticus cares for all living things and wants to teach his kids the same.
My parents are a lot like Atticus in the sense that they are very laid back and don't punish me unless they need to, and they are against violence too. However they are almost half the age of Atticus which changes there morals a and parenting quite a bit. I would like to have a parent like Atticus because of his views and morals, and parenting.
