To provide comic relief, because it's supposed to be humorous.

The excerpt from <span>Black Boy that best demonstrates the idea that Wright’s family feels frustrated and trapped in their financial situation is </span><span>C. At night there were long, halting discussions about our going to live with Granny, but nothing came of it. Perhaps there was not enough money for railroad fare.
You can see clearly here that they wanted to send to boy to his grandma so that both them and he could live a little bit better, however, they couldn't manage to set aside even that little money to send him away.

So they won't be seen; so Atticus will be busy reading; because if they were killed they'd miss school instead of vacation and because it is easier to see inside a dark house in the dark rather than in the daytime.
Hope this helps
