Waging a Living

Last week we watched the movie, waging a living. I thought this movie was really interesting and I learned a lot about people that are not as lucky as we are with our living situation. It was sad watching the families with kids that had to deal with the poverty because no child should have to live like that. It made me feel really bad for the families and it wasn't always their fault for getting into poverty. I thought the situation of Barbara Brooks was really sad because she was trying so hard to do everything she could for her kids but she couldn't find a better paying job without more education. She gave up all the time she had to go to school and work so that she could give more to her kids. I think that is very inspiring because you don't always see the parent working that hard for their kids in that kind of situation. 

It was really hard to watch the movie because it's hard to believe people actually live like that. I actually thoroughly enjoyed watching this movie because it fascinated me and I never got bored of it.
