[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Precious. If you are from a place like that, like I am, it makes you realize we never had a shot. [/quote] I am not from a place like that but have taught in schools with children who grew up in poverty. It was such an achingly sad movie for me to watch. And yes those children have such an uphill battle it’s hard to imagine overcoming it.[/quote] I watched after leaving my work as a social worker on west side Chicago once I had my first child. I asked my husband to leave and sat in the theater by myself, and released so much sadness and grief of all that I had witnessed and held for my clients. It was brutal to read the case histories (which were unimaginable-- 5 year olds witnessing their 9 year old siblings rape their 4 year old sibling to death) and then meet with the precious innocent faces off the paper. The movie was VERY well done, except for casting Mariah Carey as the social worker. awful casting there.[/quote]
