Atticus as a father

Atticus as a father seems nice enough and is not too strict with Jem or Scout. he is fair and probably knows what's best for them. atticus seems like the type of parent who would let his kids get away with the unimportant stuff. scout and jem are having a brawl over jem bosing scout around. atticus splits them up and says, " let's leave it at this: you mind jem whenever he can make you." this shows that he doesnt want to spend to much time on thw things that dont matter much and thinks of the best and fairest way to deal with it. i think atticus ie trying to install fairness into jem ans scout and understanding and that they are both equal.
In some ways my parents are like atticus and most of the time they're not like him. when dealing with a stiuation like jem and scouts brawl my mom would probably just go to one of me or my brother and try t chear one of us up and say a few things. my dad would probably want to know exactly what happened and try to figgure it out. at some times i would like a father like atticus but other times i would prefer my parents.
