Chapter 12-14: to kill a mockingbird

Chapter 12: I feel bad for Scout, Jem was like one of her only friends and since mrs. Dubose died he changed and started to grow up and become more like a father than a friend (like when he yells at her to grow up and tells her what to do) I also feel bad for he because dill isn't even there that summer and I think she really missed him. it was an interesting chapter because cal took Jem and scout to a "black" church- I didn't know she was black beforehand. Why was lula so upset that Jem and Scout were there when everyone else was okay with it? Also I found it strange when they didn't raise enough money so they locked the doors and wouldn't let anyone out until the had $10. Why is aunt Alexandra there? 
Chapter 13: this chapter confused me, why did it matter what last name you had? Why is aunt Alexandra here?- I don't really like her, she try's to make scout not be herself and act more like aunt Alexandra. Why did she make Atticus talk to the kids about a last name? It's just a name- everyone is different you can't group people saying they are all the same if they have the same last name. 
Chapter 14: DILL CAME BACK!!!! Yay!! I don't understand exactly why he did but I think scout is happy he is there. Jem and scout got in a fight because Jem is trying to control scout like saying he will spank her. Also why is aunt Alexandra bothered that scout wants to go see cal and trying to get rid of cal? She makes a big deal out of things that shouldn't matter
