C.A.R.E.S is a program that influences non violence. The movie that we saw had a lot of these rules in them. For example, Henry's dad had to cooperate when he learned that Henry did not want to work in the coal mine he owned. At first, he was against the idea the henry wanted to be a rocket scientist because back then if you would usually take you fathers job, especially when he owns the buissness. It was very hard to get out of a coal mining area once you were in it. The only way you got out is some people got lucky and recieved a football scholarship. Henry tried to play football but he didn't suceed therefore he had to change his plans. His mom on the other hand had respect for Henry with his dream. Respect is the R in C.A.R.E.S. It also seemed like she was happy with whatever her son wanted to do. She would come to see most of all of Henry's rocket launches and she helped to build the rocket some. Another character that showed respect was the welder that would weld Henry's rockets together. Then he died, and Henry had respect for him because he looked back on all the things he did for him. His brother who got the scholarship for football showed assertion (the A in CARES). Assertion means that something is said in a positive manner that is held without a reason. He told Henry many times that the only probable way Henry could get out was on a football scholarship. He denied the offer many times. But then he went on to win the country science fair and lived a happy life. That is, out of the coal mining buissness his dad owned.
The movie we saw also related to science in many ways. The whole movie was about scince to be infact. One way it related was when they got in trouble for setting the forest fire with one of thier rocket. He used math to figue the angle at which it was shot to find where it landed. They proved the police wrong because it was no where near the forest. He also used science when he figured out what to put in the rocket to make it fly. He needed to take the weight and a whole buch of other things. There are many ways science connected to the movie "Rocket Boys."
