Jem, Scout and Dill have made it their mission to get Boo out of his house. It is all they can think about and they are consumed with the idea of it. Atticus is tired of the kids disturbing the Radley's and warns the children to stop bothering them. Jem and Dill still want to go ahead with their plan of looking in the windows of the Radley house, but Scout is against the idea. She doesn't want to disobey and disappoint Atticus.
The kids have been so consumed with the idea of Boo Radley, that this is all they can think about. Atticus realizes what they are doing and wants to put a stop to it. Atticus has known the Radley's a long time and just wants people to leave them alone, he especially wants his children to not become a part of the people who torment the Radley's. By the time the trial starts, the children have gotten over trying to get Boo out. They are focused on more important things.
What Jem and Scout don't realize, is that Boo Radley is watching them, as well. They can't even begin to imagine the nightmare they are about to be a part of, and the role Boo will play in all of this.
