A Raisin in the Sun and Ordinary People

I really enjoyed watching both of the films. They both present struggles that families can face but having money in life may not always make things easier for a family.

The children that get dropped off and picked up from school from their nannies, when the mom in fact does not work, devastate me. These children are starving for attention. I believe that families should provide their children and grandchildren, a sense of belonging. As a teacher, I try my best to give them the extra attention they may need. I would also add into my curriculum different activities that involve the
