There's a nauseating bias here against people who've had horrific childhoods.

"Let me tell you about the years of physical/emotional/sexual abuse I've suffered though." That's just not going to happen - and if it did happen the interviewer is probably not going to come away with "What a brave person to overcome all of that!" but "What a damaged person, I don't need them around".

Well done, you've weeded out people who've already suffered enough.
