What metaphor does Alexandra use to describe the role that Scout should play in her father’s life because she is a girl? How does her repetition of the metaphor help establish her tone and indicate her feelings about Alexandra’s attempt to influence her?

What will be an ideal response?


She says Scout should be the “sunshine of [Atticus’] lonely life”, however Scout says she can still be a ray of sunshine in pants. She totally rejects Alexandra’s attempts to change her simply because she does not like it. She wants to be herself and Atticus is fine with that.
