As the mother of a nearly three-year-old child, my highly sensitive personality makes me so cautious that I can't take the child alone for more than a day. If the child's butt is a little red, I will collapse to the point of explosion. So in the movie, the moment when Abilion came to work the next day, took off the diaper and covered his mouth and wept, I remembered it for a long time.
Regarding the matter of being born without raising, and raising without doing it myself, I am extremely despised and extremely helpless.
First of all, as an upper-class white man at the time, vanity and comparison occupied the daily life of life. Asking a maid to take care of the children instead of him, the starting point is that he is too busy, hates children, or does not want to be different from others?
Fear of being isolated, fear of being treated as a loser, fear of being an outlier. The film I watched in 2016 is now like a new film, and I seem to be able to appreciate the psychological changes of many characters.
The rough situation did not leave me with nothing. I saw the quality of black maids, who can work for white people in such a dangerous and discriminated and difficult living environment caused by discrimination, while being their enemy. What an amazing thing to give to white kids, so much love from the bottom of my heart. Although because of political advocacy and other reasons, the children who once brought them up personally drove them out of the house and broke their hearts, but optimism, diligence and self-esteem enabled minny and ahbie to be found by stueart as pioneers.
For me at this stage, the biggest inspiration is to live a down-to-earth and simple life, not to pursue unattainability and vanity too much, to be sharp, and not to lose a sense of humor.
