Why is katniss not very close to her mom?

1 answer:

3 0

When her husband died (Katniss and Prim's father) she basically became catatonic and couldn't function. She didn't bother to take care of either Prim or Katniss when she should have. She didn't even worry about if they had food or not.

Katniss loves her mother (and her mother loves both of them too) but she thinks she's weak/pathetic and their realtionship is bitter to her. It would be hard to have strong negative feelings for a parent b/c you're *supposed to love them. Katniss and her mother's roles in the family unit were reveresed after the mining accident that killed Mr. Everdeen. Katniss also has put her name in 2 extra times every year to get more food as well so that's not very fun either.

Once she volunteered she freaks out in the book thinking that Prim is going to starve because she's worried her mother will 'tune out' again. That's why she sresses to Gale to take care of them as well as his own family

slava [35]

Answer:

The idea is bounded rationality.

Explanation:

The Bounded Rationality Theory was proposed by Herbert Simon and it states that human cognition is not perfect and is flawed. One's reasoning can have fails which restricts the decision making and eventually coming to an optimal one.

The theory states that a person tends to take irrational decisions since his/her rational thinking is in fact limited by his/her cognitive skills, the available time and the complexity of such problem.

When solving a problem, one can never truly fix it in a completely optimal way since it is impossible to think of all the solutions to the problem.
