Well, considering that this movie mostly talks about the social norms of our society and how abuse affects it, it was a pretty good movie. I really enjoyed how the directors and screenwriters displayed Katie and how she has, not only development problems but also a very crude sexual history for only being an early teen. The reality of the film and how Katie was bounced around from home to home, and how the viewers could view her confusion and frustration was key to showing her development as the movie progresses. in a student textbook 'Sociology and You' social norms are discusses as far as a well known sociologist Freud goes. It was interesting to see how Katie was slowly transforming from her id state and reached her ego state. Unfortunately, Katie never reached the superego state. She could not progress, for there had been too much damage done, with being held captive in a small dark room for so many year all alone. Truth be told, it is normal for the grants like the one that Sandra requested to be put down, or taken away. If the progress is not continuing, like with Katie, the state feels no need to continue spending money on a 'lost cause' so to speak. Fortunately, Katie may not have been able to speak properly, but she was able to learn sign language. although, in her foster home, she was not allowed to use the sign that she was taught and was forced to speak her choppy sentences.
