In chapters 12 and 13, Jem and Scout experience new things in their lives. In chapter 12, instead of going to their normal church they went to Calpurnia's church. Some members stared at them because they didn't want whites to be at their church. Jem and Scout noticed that the way they did things at Cal's church were different from their's.
In chapter 13, their Aunt Alexandra comes to live with Jem, Scout and Atticus. Atticus wanted her to come and stay so that someone else can loook over Jem and Scout. Aunt Alexandra said that she wanted to make Scout more feminine and act lady like. Scout didn't want to do that because she knows that Aunt Alexandra wouldn't let her play around in the summer. This will have more of an effect on Jem and Scout more than Calpurnia's church.

It's almost like in chapter 12, their lives open up; by contrast, in 13, life choices are closed.
