Hi,
One of my teachers has asked if the TV Series, "Life Goes On" is available.
I haven't found it anywhere. Does anyone have it or any ideas to give this
teacher on alternatives to use with her remedial High School Class. (They are
reading OF MICE AND MEN and she was looking for a movie or TV show representing
mental retardation and friendship to show as a comparison.
The only one I thought of off the top of my head was either "THE OTHER
SISTER" or "RAINMAN"
Thank you.
