To Kill A Mocking Bird Chapters 22-25

In the reading, Jem was very upset  with the court's decision and said, "I thought the citizens of Maycomb were the best citizens in the world". Although Scout thinks that Jem is acting like an adult, I think he still has a long way to go. When you are children, you aren't aware of the horrors in the world because you are innocent. Jem and Scout, however, are still innocent. Both characters have a long way to go to grow up and I believe the rest of the story may focus on this.
