Best Answer

Aunt Alexandra is rather pushy, and she wants to raise Scout differently than she's currently being raised. Both Atticus and Scout are sensible people, but don't feel the change is necessary, and despite his sister having the best intentions, she doesn't quite understand that they're happy the way they are, or why that is ok.

Scout asks Atticus if she can visit Calpurnia. Aunt Alexandra emphatically states that she cannot. Scout replies that she was asking Atticus, not Aunt Alexandra. Therefore, Atticus makes Scout apologize.
