The relationship between Mayella and her father is an abusive one. He beats her and makes her do all the work around the house. Although she doesnt like what her dad does to her she puts up with it because she has nowhere else to go. Nobody in the town talks to the Ewell family because they are poor and uneducated. Mayella is different from her father in the fact that she attempts to rise above her situation by remaining clean and trying to bring beauty to her home with the flowers.
She is similar to him in that she lies on the stand and attempts to manipulate the jury. Along with this, Tom had ran before seeing Mr. Ewell, according to Mayella, yet to Bob, he saw everything. He seemed to intimadate her with his presence.
She spoke with very simple vocabulary, and was poorly educated since she had never completed her education. Scout's point of view of Mayella was that she came across as being fragile but as she sat in the witness chair she had looked more like a stalky girl that seemed to do alot of had work.
My opinion of Mayella is that I feel that she should tell the truth and tell the judge who really raped her to bring the accused to justice. I feel this way because I think it is wrong to blame someone else for something that they actually didn't commit. They are different because Mr. Ewell is agressive and is the most domanant, whereas Mayella just wants attention for compagnionship. Ewell stated that he had saw Tom beating at his daughter and he had ended up chasing him away.
This helps Tom Robinson's case because Atticus has found a flaw in Mr. Ewell and Mayella's story. This flaw could bring the case to an ending. Question 3 Mayella incriminates her father on the witness stand by a few reasons: -She had said that Tom had left her lying on the ground and after Bob Ewell had found her he asked her who did it.
Meanwhile her father had said that he had seen Tom raping her. These reasons incriminate Bob Ewell because in some cases, there are parts that don't relate. She is acting as if Atticus is makeing fun of her and that he is mocking her. When ever Atticus asks her a hard question which she will lie about, she will cry and whine to the judge. She is not a well educated girl and cannot speak good as well.
Her view is only one sided only what her father said. She is not telling the truth.
