Optimism and Effort Equals a Better Future
In the movie we watched, it exposed us to the different classes and stereotypes placed on different grouos of people. People are judged to a large extent on their race, ethnicity, social status, financial situation, and their ability to succeed in life. People act in certain manners depending on the situation and who they are aquainted with. We don't even realize we're living this way because it's been apart of us since we were raised in this world from birth. Our parents teach us certain morals and principals that we take for granted not realizing that a majority of society alters these behaviors in life. Different religions and social groups behave differently depending on the situation and how they were raised as adolecense. For example, in the movie they showed the dedicated women Tammy optimistically working her way to supporting a family alone determined to provide an income no matter where it originated from. Her sons were embarrased by her career path because modern society views the successful people as your doctors, lawyers, business men, scientists, pilots, and so many more professions out there. This movie was an excellent lesson for me to never judge those around me who work hard and sacrfice for their families in order to survive.

I agree that our families and social class effect the way we are raised to act.
