She doesn't lose her innocence, she matures. She stops hanging around her brother and Dill and replaces them with Miss Maudie, and the ladies at the tea party. She undestands that there are more important things in life.

Scout really respects her father and when people start calling him "ni**** lover" she realises that people judge you no matter what. She thinks that if someone is innocent they get off and she can't understand the prejudice against her father and Tom. She quickly has to grow up.

Scout is no longer just a little kid and has come to the realization of the sad world in which scout lives.

one of the defining characteristics of children is that they don't differ between gender...when jem makes this comment he forces scout to acknowledge the differences between her and her brother as well as force her to acknowledge her "tom-boy"ness...she now needs to "grow up" and "act her age"
