Question

What is the difference between the way Atticus defines family and the
way Alexandra does?

Answer 1

Explanation: Atticus views family as the people who are there for you..... the children, the neighbors, the community. An example of this would be Atticus' reaction to Alexandra's desire for Calupurnia's dismissal. Aunt Alexandra views family based on name, heritage, and the social dictates of one's heritage.
