This particular quote is very disturbing and says a lot about Mellie. I think that the passage shows how Mellie represents innocence and ignorance. She was obviously not raised properly and lacks the judgement to know she was raped. She somehow believes that she owes the driver something when he took advantage of her. The passage shows how parenting is so important and that kids need to be watched until an age more mature than 12. Young people lack the maturity to know what is right and I believe that it is those who raised Mellie who are responsible for her actions and lack of conscience.
