The movie Chocolate

I really enjoyed the movie. I did not like the fact that the words did not go with their mouths but what can you expect. So I really learned alot about people with disabilities. It really helped me understand the residents that I work with. I think that sometimes people take advantaged of the mentally disabled. I also think that some people do not realize a mentally disabled persons strength. I understand that the movie was a little dramatic on this part but once you work with them you tend to see their abilities and its unbelievable. People take for granted their abilities that they have while others with disabilities have to work for many years to overcome or even be able to attempt some of the daily things that people do. In the movie it really demonstrated this. They showed how she would watch and learn that way but she didnt only watch once she had to watch the same thing many of times to understand what was really going on. She may not have even understood what was going on but she was able to repeat their actions and this is a big achievement to some with a disability.
