I believe they didn't, but even if they did, SO WHAT?! They changed his life, game him love, food, a roof over his head and an opportunity, in the end, he's the winner. This family is rich anyway.
What a family!!! I can say that Michael was lucky, but that same luck goes for the Tuohy too, not for the mony, or a roof, but yes, the love of a good son and goos parents. Those people are incredible, It's a family that millions of other families just wish to have that love. Even Sandra Bullock cried in the oscars 2010, i also cried watching The Blind Side!!
I'm just really happy for the whole family, they really deserve it.
@GameplayXperience They do deserve it, and its amazing, what they did!, if just more Family's could do the same it would change the World! but many people doesnt understand the reality anymore.
I can't stand these people who notice their financial benefit. Do you really think the Tuohy's set out with that goal?! Who knew that this story would be made into a movie? Who knew that these people would be asked to do talk shows and things?! The Tuohy's are good people, they helped this boy out of the goodness of their heart! More people need to follow their example...
If the charity and the religiosity is truly felt by the Tuohy family, they would adopt another and start a charity leading towards urban revitalization, especially since they have more money than God.
Right, I am the greedy one, when they did one nice act and now are worth four times their initial financial worth for profiting off it with the movie deal and the books, and the television appearances. Way to make their charity disingenuous.
@outinsider You're one cynical s.o.b. So what good have YOU ever done for anyone else, pray tell? The Tuohys continue to contribute to various charities and they continue to help people change their lives and others' for the better. They for sure had no idea that they would become famous, and they made Michael one of their heirs -- just like Collins and Sean Jr. -- at the time that they took in a homeless youngster.
You really need to change YOUR life; you're one sick cookie.
Plenty. I devout my time to ending racism by letting people know of past and present injustices. I cannot afford to give to charity at the moment, but I support countless charities nonetheless through activism. All the Tuohy family did was take in Michael Oher and sell their charitable act for more money they were already making. It jsut so happens that Leigh Ann was already an interior decorator for Extreme Home Makeover before a movie was made, & Michael Lewis is a family friend.
@outinsider LMAO@"plenty"! You run your damned ignorant mouth about your concept of "injustices" and yoiu "support countelss charities through activism" (more bullshit without any sacrifice of your OWN money). You worthless little hypocrite! You believe in spending other peoples' money and telling other people what to do and you piss on your better because they "already" had jobs and then claim that they needed to "sell their charitable 'act'"?!? You're as irrational as you are stupid.
Also, it says in the Bible that those with wealth should give back to their community. Just because I don't have more money than God like the Tuohys doesn't mean that they should be less charitable just because they horde. Also, just because someone has lots of money doesn't make them better than me in any way, shape, or form. It just means that they have more money. America is not an oligarchy.
It's not government welfare that improves peoples' lives; it is YOU and I who do good when we voluntarily turn around and notice our brothers and sisters in need. Jesus said that he had nothing to add to the Ten Commandments EXCEPT that, "Ye love one another; even as I have loved you."
LOL sandra bullock did a pretty good job in real life, leigh anne tuohy's sound just like the one in the movie
