I remember watching the 1988 film God Bless the Child [1] with Mare Winningham as the hardworking yet impoverished mother trying to keep it together for her young daughter. It was so moving, I cried all the way through it and it has left a life-long impression.
So sad to see not much has changed in 30 years.
