The Other Sister Post 3

Helena George

Two supports that Carla needed to function in her environment was her family and the special school she went to. It was apparent from the film that the school had helped her a lot with understanding what life outside the school was like. You can assume that it was a very supportive, nurturing environment which probably led to her success in the poly tech school. I make these assumptions based on how Danny grew up. He went to schools and was bullied and called "stupid" so much that even he started to believe it and almost gave up if it wasn't for Carla. The second support would be her family and the housekeeper. I could see how much Carla loved the housekeeper and how the housekeeper would show her how to cook and help with things that Carla used when she lived on her own. Her dad was a pretty big support too, at least more so than her mother and her sisters.
