Living on One Dollar

Today we watched the movie Living on One Dollar. It was hard for me to see all of the kids that couldn’t go to school and had to work in the fields all day. They had dirty water, very little food, and their parents had unstable jobs. Something that was really cool was when a 12-year old boy named Chino’s mom got very sick and was dying, a man named Anthony that had a good job helped them get to the hospital and get medicine and paid for it all. I can’t even imagine how hard it would be to live like that. So many things we have we take for granted. We even wish we didn’t have to go to school sometimes. If the kids there could seeĀ all the things we have, they would be speechless. It was really cool to see the community working together as a family. This movie made me think about how many privileges I have.
