morality

Atticus follows universal ethics, He raises his kids how he wants to have them when they get older. Insted of having to follow others peoples morality's, he follows his own. The one black family versus the white family shows that he doesn't care what others think of him he would rather do what he wants others to do to him. This is also shown when he tells jem to go read to Miss Dubose, because its the nice thing to do. He also takes the radleys into consideration, about how they treat the radleys.

Scout followes her own self-interest mostlywhen she beats people up not for any one but because that makes her content, Walter she beat him up for her self-image. And how she dresses her aunt would rather have her dress like a girl should at the time. But she also does things for atticus when she doesn't beat up the one kid and when she eats up on francis. She also does things for others like when she goes with jem to the Dubose's she didn't have to go but wanted to, to help Jem. and with school she stays in school for aticus also so she is mainly for her self or atticus.
