Why do Maycomb officials bend the rules for the Ewells? Is this the right thing to do??

1 answer:

<span>Burris Ewell and his family manage to live outside the local and national laws because they are so poor and ignorant, belonging to the lowest circle of white Maycomb society. The Ewell children only need to come to school for the first day, and then the town will overlook the fact that they are absent, even though schooling is mandatory for all children. Likewise, Mr. Ewell is allowed to hunt out of season because he is known to be an alcoholic who spends his relief money on whiskey - if he can't hunt, his children may not eat. Here we see how the law, which is meant to protect people, can sometimes be harmful if followed too absolutely. Sometimes, it is in everyone's best interests to bend the law in special cases. The town's opinion is that no law will ever force the Ewells to change, because they are set in their "ways". Rather, the law must change to accommodate them and protect the children, who should not have to suffer needlessly.

Hope this helped. :)

I can't write the whole thing but I can help.

Start with the main character in his/her room. Then explain the room in detail. Is it clean is it a mess?

Now, the character has to leave their room. Why? What room did they go into?

The character now hears something outside. What did they hear? Was it quiet or loud? Was it and animal? Explain the sound.

That is when your character should meet the Alien. Make sure you build suspense here. Add details.

Now your Character is on the ship. How did they get on the ship? What does the ship look like?

Now the alien comes in holding something scary (make it a sharp object)

Get you character to escape. Maybe break a window?

Then Have your character call 911.

At this point the Alien should leave.

I would end it by him/her going to the psycho ward because they thought they where crazy.
