I thought it was cool that Scout and Jem got to go to Calpurnia's church, First Purchase, and come to the realization that she leads a "double life"; one the Finch family's housekeeper, the other "having command of two languages" (well-educated and 'colored').
However, I thought it very rude of Aunt Alexandra that she even suggested to Atticus that something needed to be done about "her". Although she may be proper, Aunt Alexandra is very snobbish with her "More Holy Than Thou" attitude. She's so - I don't even know how to describe her - the way she talks about everyone in Maycomb and blames certain characteristics on their heredity. If I were Scout, Aunt Alexandra would have gotten a piece of my mind and I would have begged Atticus to ask her to leave. I'm kind of behind in reading (Ch.14), so that's as far as I've gotten.

yeah, i agree. i would just like to walk right on up to Aunt A. and start yelling at her! and who knows..i might even punch her!
i really don't like her.
i also think it was WAYYYY out of her place to tell Scout that she couldn't go to Calpurnia's house.
Calpurnia's amazing, and loves Scout like a daughter. Nothing bad would happen to her.
Aunt Alexandra likes to condemn people before the crime. She blames things on this families "drinking streak," or that families "gambling streak."
