Because Atticus thought there were more important things to be proud of their father than of shooting a gun.
Atticus said " I don't want you to remember it. Forget it." It kind of symbolizes that whatever he told the children before that - he is taking it back and does not want the children to make the change he just told them to.

For example, Atticus always told his children not to fight, even if they were provoked. Atticus set a good example for them when Bob Ewell spat on his face, and he just calmly walked away.
Dill told Atticus that they were just having lunch.
Atticus Finch is a character in the classic novel "To Kill a Mockingbird." He teaches understanding and tolerance to his children by defending the accused rapist and teaching them not to judge people immediately.
Atticus goes and talks to Jem and Scout and tells them that they need to change the way they act. He tells them that they need to act more like the rest of the finch family.atticu originally tries to follow alexandras way to raise children but it makes scout cry and then stops her way of raising children.
We learn that he likes to use words of disappointment as a punishment rather than a physical beating. Atticus is also understanding and he saves Dill from being punished, even though Dill is not his son. He is also kind and loving. (:
Atticus tells the children not to dwell on family pride because it can lead to prejudice and discrimination. He encourages them to challenge their beliefs and think for themselves rather than blindly following the values of their family.
The last thing Tom Robinson said to Atticus in "To Kill a Mockingbird" was, "Goodnight, sir." This was in response to Atticus thanking him after the trial.
When Dill ran away and came to Scout for help she was prepared to hide him. When Jem found out, he immediately told Atticus, thus driving a deeper wedge between Jem and Scout.
He couldn't. Scout was maturing and knew something was wrong. Any child would go after their father if they knew something terrible was going to happen. However, Atticus could have told Calpurnia or the Aunt to watch them carefully and keep them busy.
Atticus doesn't seem upset, but rather happy that Bob Ewell challenged him. Atticus said that it was better that Mr. Ewell took out his anger on Atticus. If not he would take out his anger on one of his children, which Atticus didn't want.
