Although Avery said she didn't want to discuss things, her family should have made a little more effort to encourage her to go talk to someone impartial. This could have helped recreate unification more quickly. Having someone who knew nothing about her and only knew what she said to him might have helped her express herself better to her family. Avery became too closed off and only had media that knew her too well to be impartial, because they only wanted her to be happy on her journey of self-discovery. A therapist, social worker, or psychologist could have provided Avery with a mediator between her and her family. Even though she was living outside the home, it would have been helpful to have help talking to her family about what she was going through. Instead of speaking up, she walked away, leaving her family to bear the brunt of the rejection she felt from her birth mother. This fear of rejection could have been discussed in more depth and examined from different points of view if Avery had had a counselor at the beginning of his process with his biological mother. Additionally, it would have been beneficial for Avery to join a support group. A support group would surround her with individuals who are experiencing or have experienced what she experienced throughout the film. She could have heard how others handled rejection and how they overcame it. Plus, she might have received advice on how to approach her biological mother, instead of the invasive way she tried at first. Avery may have better understood how important it is to become familiar with this relationship, as both parties are in a delicate situation.
