I believe Atticus is a very good father. He is slightly older than some of the other parents and he is much wiser and knowledgeable. He is very stern but also has a big heart and cares about everyone. His punishments are quite harsh sometimes like when Jem damaged Mrs. Dubose's flowers and Jem had to "...work on 'em every Saturday and try to make 'em grow back out." (page 105)
Atticus and my parents are similar in many ways and different in a couple of ways. For instance, they are stern when it comes to punishment but at the same time they are extremely polite and reasonable. My parents are different from Atticus because, Atticus doesn't really punish or think much of Scout and Jem cursing. My parents do not allow cursing in my house and my brothers and I will get punished if they hear it.
