The question we asked her was, "When you wake up in the morning, do you want to be yourself (let's call that character X) amongst a lot of this kind of kid (let's call that character Y), or do you want to be character X amongst mostly this others kind of kid (character A). Even though she was closer in nature to Y she preferred to spend her days as an X amongst A's.</p>
