[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone obviously is entitled to their opinions here, and I will share mine. As a survivor of childhood abuse, as someone from a very dysfunctional family with unresolved generational trauma- I loved this movie, and felt seen. Obviously the way that the healing happened on screen was insufficient and unrealistic, but it moves me to tears every time I’ve watched.

And, the story has helped me explain a bit to my kids about why my family is the way they are, why grandma acts the way she does.

And the music and visuals are beautiful.[/quote]

Different dysfunctions perhaps but any family or person that achieves much at all had an Abuela figure in their lives.  If someone wasn’t keeping the trains on time, keeping good traditions, or maintaining some kind of standards /expectations things would have been VERY dysfunctional.

Kids can’t teach and parent themselves.  It is very difficult to escape a bad situation with lack of one parent figure teaching, guiding, caring, and “with it.”

Kids that can escape their bad situation have to find the Abuela figure on their own via a teacher, counselor, coach, and find their own scholarships or get into the military to escape. And they still won’t have any support at home. [/quote]
