[quote=Anonymous]As a child abuse survivor, I tend to avoid talking about where I actually grew up because it brings back memories that I want to avoid. However, I don't lie or make-up stories. I just say "I'm from DC" which is technically true because I was born in they District and I've lived here longer than any other place. I just didn't grow up here (moved away when I was 2). Being white, there's usually some follow-up question/assumption I didn't grow up in the District, so if I"m pressed I just say I grew up in [insert state] and try to change the topic.[/quote]
