Monsena is an independent and adventurous child who likes to explore new places in her environment. However, her mother is overprotective and forbids Monsena from going to the backyard or garden in their house. Developmental psychologists would say that a discussion of this discrepancy concerns:
goodness of fit- refers to the match between a child's temperament and the environmental demands with which the child must cope

goodness of fit- refers to the match between a child's temperament and the environmental demands with which the child must cope.

Explanation:

It should be understood that developmental psychology is known to be or can be described as a study that deals with how and why individuals change over the course of their life span. This aspect of psychology looks at how thinking, feeling, and behavior change throughout a person's life. And a person that study this aspect of psychology is being referred to as a developmental psychologist.

In this case, Monsena is showing a kind of development which she knows nothing about. Therefore, her mother was trying to guide her at that critical stage of development so that she won't be adversely affected. This means that, the mother is trying to fit the child's temperament with the environmental demands.

panem is a communist totalitarian dictatorship where all the resources and how they are allocated belongs to the capitol. the districts exist only to provide goods and services for the capital and most of the citizens live in poverty. it is a police state where the "peacekeepers" use force and threats to keep the people under control. dissent is outlawed and those who disobey the law are executed, flogged, or turned into avoxes. the games are another means in which the ruling elite in the capitol exert their power over the districts. when reading the books i drew parallels between panem and the soviet union and north korea. in no way is panem capitalist. the people in the capitol are wealthy but the majority of them are involved in the government somehow. it was the same way in the former soviet union where bigwigs in the communist party and high ranking government officials were given access to goods, services, medical treatments not available to the general public. if you think panem has a capitalist economy you need to brush up on your economics.
