Piggy's continual references to things that is auntie said and told him not to do showed that Piggy was a follower rather than a leader. This is probably why Piggy never made any attempt to become chief and was happy to support Ralph when he was elected to that position. Piggy is a conformist.
Piggy's references to his auntie reveal his longing for comfort and stability, as well as his vulnerability and sensitivity. They also suggest a lack of independence and self-assurance, as he relies on memories of her for support.
Piggy is the character in "Lord of the Flies" who mentions his overprotective aunt. He frequently references her throughout the novel.
Piggy tells Ralph that his parents are dead and he lives with his auntie, he has asthma, and the kids at school call him Piggy.

In "Lord of the Flies," Piggy's aunt was a "telephone operator." This detail is mentioned in Chapter 1 of the novel, when Piggy explains to Ralph that his aunt owns a candy store. Piggy's aunt's profession as a telephone operator is significant as it highlights the contrast between the boys' previous civilized lives and their current situation of being stranded on the deserted island.
Ralph is the main character, with Jack, Piggy, Simon, and Samneric following close behind.

It is a sign of civilization and back home, non-savage like all the other boys are becoming.
Basically, Piggy only has the understanding of one type of person, the democratic and mature type, such as adults, referring to his Auntie in the beginning of the book, and how reliant he was on her, this is his strength in where he knows what's right, but is also his weakness, as he is not familiar with the premature types, such as children his own age, as he said at the beginning of the novel he was teased and so was reliant on his Auntie for support. Golding deliberately chooses Piggy as the insecure intellectual as it both shows how the intelligent are limited and held back by the militant majority.
