I thought that Children of the Plains thing on 20/20 seemed ... Okay. It got most of the stuff right, but there were cameras there & most of the bad people possibly change because of the fame of actually being on T.V. to make themselves look good.I mean its good they changed entirely. But you never know.
As for me, I live with 11 people in a 5 bedroom house. I also live close to the area so I know how it is to live in those conditions. It gets better if you’re lucky, but if you’re not lucky, it turns out to be the same thing (Bad/good) every single day for the rest of your life.
I got teary-eyed when the little girl lost her dad. And she doesn’t know what’s going on because she can’t feel true sadness yet because she’s so young. Also the other little girl tried to commit suicide (she’s as old as my little brother!!) it just makes me think. She’s so young but knows so much already.
Most of the houses I see look like all of the ones in the video. Some of my best friends live in worse conditions than the video displays. And I know somebody that lives in a 2 bedroom house with 6 people living together. I know what you’re thinking. How can somebody live like that? Why can’t they get a job? How can they live without privacy? Ok, one they try to survive. Two, tell us were we can get jobs cause there isn’t any down here for people with our education. Three, that’s a thing u have to give up if you want to survive or at least cope with everything.
There are many things in that video the hit the nail. But there are always missing pieces. Like a movie to the book it originated from. Well that’s my post.
