She told Together magazine, “For me, when people say, ‘Wow, you grew up in a trailer.’ But it didn’t feel like that. I didn’t feel, ‘Oh, poor me, I’m in a trailer park.’ It wasn’t a bad experience. I had a roof over my head and I had food, and so it wasn’t that being poor and having those experiences was a negative. The negative part of it was learning about class at such a young age, not from my friends, but from my friends’ parents, who would say, ‘You aren’t to hang out with her.’ At 6 years old, to have a parent say, ‘You’re not welcome in our home, you need to go.’ Or, ‘You can’t play with my son or daughter.’ Now I see children, I just think, How could anyone do something like that?“
