In the question they basically say match the traits. So that means the title obedient means perfectly contained and the title pleading child means those who follow their own minds. :)

"Obedient" <----> "Perfectly Contained" "those who follow their own mind" <----> “Pleading Child” that would be the match up

The "Obedient" child is the "Perfectly contained" child because, obedient means someone who is willing to following orders and someone who is well disciplined. The "Ones who follow their own mind" matches up with "Pleading child" because, People who follow their own mind are usually free willing. This is the answer i put put this answer in ur own words

"obedient" <~~which do you connect this trait with? “Pleading Child” or “Perfectly Contented”? "those who follow their own mind" <~~ which do you connect this trait with? “Pleading Child” or “Perfectly Contented”? Once you decide those things, you'll be ready to plan and write your paper.

listen you arent just going to get an essay handed to you on a silver platter. even though this is homeschool its still school. you are going to have to do work from time to time. seriosly if you guys keep cheating you are going to grow up with a 6th grade education. good luck finding a job that excepts cheaters.
