As much as I despise this tool, I'm going to have to defend her on this one.

Why? Because I have a similar experience. I was born in Texas in 1973. When I was not quite 2 years old my family left the US and traveled overseas. We lived in Singapore for about 11 years, then came back to Texas for about 6 months, and then back overseas to Indonesia for about 4 years. Then Alaska for 4 years. Then we came home to Texas again. I have now lived back in Texas for 30 years., Our company (oilfield) did cover flight expenses for us to spend summers in the US with my grandparents, but I still went to school and was brought up in a foreign country. Do I get to call myself a Texan? Or even an American?
