America

Rosie odnell you did your thang in directing this movie.

This movie will always be one of my faves.

Great movie. Sad moment but definitely worth watching.

This was an excellent DVD on the life of a kid who was placed in the foster care system; he was a representation of scores of children who face the challenges of being in foster care. Also, the DVD presentation takes viewers through the internal dilemma he went through after being abused in the foster home he was placed in. This DVD can be an excellent teaching tool for counselors use in helping students to work the same issues America faced. Moreover, the counselors can encourage students to overcome them via the support the character, America, received.

I first saw this movie on Lifetime network and I have been hooked since. In todays trying times, broken families, and peer pressure, it shows us that all most of these kids need is some compassion, love & understanding. Rosie is incredible in the movie and has even taken steps in her private life to help and adopt. I think if more would take that as an example these kids wouldn't have to 'fall through the cracks and age out'. These kids are in America ... and they are America's children.

pretty good movie could have been more in depth with more stories of kids in the foster system all over america.

This is a wonderful movie (quality and all) that has a beautiful message attached not to spoil the movie but once you have seen this it will become very clear what life is all about. Given that this story is one that is very near and dear to me, I must say that this is a powerful movie and the information that is presented is one that will not be forgotten.

If you ever wanted to know how the foster care system has failed many and experience workers who care but are limited in tools to work with this is the movie to watch!

Amazing film. A definite must watch. Loved it and came brand new and no scratches. Have watched again and aagin
