Hmmmm, you don't have to "hide" them. But, you don't have to broadcast them, either. We humans struggle with finding a way to balance our inner workings. You have experienced nasty things in your childhood and that is not at all irrelevant.

I just don't know how I would explain it because if one looks at my resume they may think I'm just BSing cuz I have no examples. The only thing I can think of that is not personal is when I would do gift wrapping during school but not sure if that is enough. I don't even remember much about it: just that I did it and I wasn't that good at it. I think it helped I wasn't getting paid so I lacked the motivation but regardless it's not my best example.
I think a good example would be the yard sales but even that is apparently too personal to use in an interview.
