How does the author describe Delia’s character? Why is establishing this important to the story

It seems that Delia, a “habitually meek” character, as is stated in the story, has endured years of domestic abuse from her husband, Sykes. She works tirelessly to take care of the family, with little, if any, input from him, and instead of being appreciative of her efforts, he beats and bullies her without end. I believe that Delia has always been a fighter. For fourteen of the fifteen years of their marriage, Sykes has beaten his wife, but still she stayed, even though she was supporting him. If her work taking in laundry has enabled her to keep her house, it's safe to assume she could have survived without Sykes in the house.

Explanation:

I believe it would be better to be in the known. If you are innocent towards the surrounding, you will be shown to world the hard way. Instead of someone telling you of the world around you, learning about it yourself can be scarring towards some people.

When Scout grows up, she is forced to conform to society. Throught her years, she has learned terms such as n***** lover, and Atticus never taught his children anything like that. She was exposed to Maycomb's harsh ways of living.
