Boo Radley Game:))
Atticus found out about the children's game involving Boo Radley when Heck Tate mentioned it during Tom Robinson's trial. Tate revealed that he had asked Atticus not to tell the children about Mr. Radley's courage in saving them from Bob Ewell, as it might prompt them to reenact the story. This indicated to Atticus that the children had indeed been playing a game about Boo Radley.
the laughing she heard from inside the house and atticus found out"Atticus's arrival was the second reason I wanted to quit the game. The first reason happened the day I rolled into the Radley front yard. Through all the head-shaking, quelling (trying to stop) of nausea and Jim yelling, I had heard another sound, so low I could not have heard it from the sidewalk. Someone inside the house was laughing."Scout is scared of the laughing she heard from the Radley house when she rolled in the tire, and Atticus was already suspicious that the children were acting out Boo's legend, or the "Boo Radley game."
Atticus tells the children to leave Boo Radley alone and stop playing the game because it's unfair to make a game out of someone else's life or personal circumstances. He wants them to show empathy and respect for Boo Radley's feelings and privacy, rather than treating him as a source of entertainment or curiosity.
He finds them playing "the Boo Radley game" and also trying to stick a note to the window of the Radley house.
In "To Kill a Mockingbird" the three children find Boo Radley and his story fascinating. As a result, a game is developed in which they act out various parts of Boo's rumored life. When Atticus notices them acting out a supposed stabbing of Boo's father, he steps in, letting them know the game is cruel.
The children, Scout, Jem, and Dill, have been acting out their ideas about the Radleys in much the same way they had previously acted out stories they had read. This shows that they view the family as just a part of their fictional games. They don't see the Radleys as real people and they don't realize that their game may be hurtful to real humans behind the Radley windows. Atticus catches them and orders them to "stop tormenting that man", concerning both the notes or the "Boo Radley" game. As an adult, Atticus can see the real hurt that the game may be causing. In a quiet way, he reminds the children that "What Mr. Radley does is his own business." So Atticus has taught the children as lesson about respecting other people. This foreshadows the lesson he will try to to teach the town of of Maycomb by defending Tom Robinson. Most people today would agree that Atticus was right.
Because Atticus didn't know anything about their little "game" for trying to get "Boo" Radley to come out, remember? Jem, Scout, and Dill are the only ones who know about the game anyway... Dill was the one who made it up. and, I bet Jem didn't want Mr. Nathan Radley to know it was them who tried to peek in their window. Right?
The first reason for Scout wanting to quit the game happened the day she rolled into the Radley front yard. She heard someone laughing inside the house. Atticus’s arrival was the second reason she wanted to quit the game.
Scout and Jem create a new game called "Boo Radley." In their game, they act out scenarios based on their neighbor Boo Radley, incorporating rumors and stories they have heard about him.
fun
It was basically--- Jem Scout and Dill acted out scenes of Boo Radley myths. Like the stabbing scene in which they believe that Boo Radley had stabbed his dad in the leg with a pair of scissors.
