Depends on how you look at it. When her father died in a mine explosion, Katniss's mother just completely tuned out and literally did nothing but just stare off into space. This left an 11-year-old Katniss on her own in finding a way to fend for herself and her family. They all nearly died of hunger and she knew that in order to survive, she'd have to hunt illegally.

As your older brother, I've been where you are—maybe not exactly, but close enough.
