Give an example of how the movie portrays each of the following: self-determination (p. 110), learned helplessness (p. 110), and person-centered planning (p. 110).
There are many ways that Carla portrays self-determination in this movie. The one that stuck out to me most though was when Carla was determined to go to "Normal" classes so she could further her career after school and become a veterinarian . Carla took a test to get into Normal classes and she passed. Without self determination this would not have been possible for Carla.
Carla showed many examples of Person-Centered Planning throughout this movie. The prime example that I noticed was when Carla wanted to plan her own wedding and have it exactly as she wanted without the help of her mother. Carla wanted to be independent and plan things on her own without the help of anyone else to prove that she was capable.
An example of Learned Helplessness in this movie would be when Carla found out that she passed the test at school that she had been hoping to pass. She soon found out that her friend did not pass the test. This is an example of Learned Helplessness because Carla had no control of this situation she could not change that fact that her friend did not pass the test and she did. Carla had no way to avoid this negative situation.
