This movie is a true example of how people may try to break you. You are made to be bent but not broken because God will not put more on you than you can bear. Precious is an overcomer and didn't let life get the best of her. Not her mother, father, the disease, her children, nor her education could keep her down. She didn't let the curse run on down from her mother to her abusing her kids. I am glad Precious was victorious. This is a must see film. To my single family watch who you have over your kids.
