Helps Katniss

pg183 "Finally, I hear Peeta say harshly, "oh, let her stay up there. It's not like she's going anywhere. We'll deal with her in the morning.

pg193 The shock on Peeta's face makes no sense to me. I wait for the blow. Instead his arm drops to his side. "What are you still doing here?" he hisses at me. I stare uncomprehendingly as a trickle of water drips off a sting under his ear. His whole body starts sparkling as if he's been dipped in dew. "Are you mad?" He's prodding me with the shaft if the spear now. "Get up! Get up!" I rise, but he's still pushing me. What? What is going on? He shoves me away from him hard. "Run!" he screams. "Run!". ..... Sick and disoriented, I'm able to form only one thought : peeta mellark just saved my life.
He could have just ran away himself but unlike Katniss thought, he helped Katniss and risked his like saving hers.
Believes that Katniss can win, but not himself
pg142 Katniss : Look, if you want to spend the last hours of your life planning some noble death in the arena, that's your choice. I want to spend mine in district twelve.
Peeta : Wouldn't surprise me if you do. Give my mother my best when you make it back, will you?

pg90 "You know what my mother said to me when she came to say good-bye, as if to cheer me up, she said maybe district 12 will finally have a winner. Then I realized, she didn't mean me, she meant you!....I see the pain on Peeta's eyes and know he isn't lying

Katniss's mother
After Katniss's fathers death, Katniss's mother can't live properly.
pg26,27 "... at which my mother would be expected to get a job. Only she didn't. She didn't do anything but sit propped up in a chair or, more often, huddled under the blankets on her bed, eyes fixed on some point on the distance...No amount of pleading from Prim seemed to affect her."
This tells us how after Katniss's father died, Katniss mother can't live properly. Even with her two daughters, she takes no responsibility over them and does nothing.
pg27 "At eleven years old, with Prim just seven, I took over as head of the family"
