Plus if you want to get all "reality"

, I read a study (years ago) that said most people don't remember alot (possibley bits and pieces) prior to the age of 7. Something about our long term memory, I don't know. So taking that "fact" into account with a fictional character, could be why. I mean when she's writing she is probably basing these fictional characters and places off a bit of reality. I don't think I'm making sense at all
