he doesnt - he tells scout her daddy is a ni**er lover - she beats him up for it which is sad but kinda funny - she is not too sure why it is a bad thing to say but she says it sounds bad - of course when she asks atticus if he is indeed a ni**er lover he says 'of course i am honey' - cos he tries to show her there is no reason not to be. 'ni**er' wasnt SEEN as a massively offensive term in those days - atticus tells scout not to say it cos it is simply 'common'. Anyway, scout then gets a smacked bum from uncle jack for losing her temper - which also highlights atticus' good parenting skills cos he would never hit scout without finding out the full story - he never hits them at all actually.
