How Does The Movie End For Carla
Unfortunately, it seems Carla has relapsed and is in no state to take care of her kids. She tried, mostly because Lizzy pushed her and filled out the paperwork, but with only a few months of sobriety, she isn’t ready. Add on a record and struggles we probably don’t know even the slightest bit of, and it isn’t clear if she may ever be ready or willing.
