Sources like "[[The Daria Diaries]]", "[[Cafe Disaffecto]]", and "[[Camp Fear]]" have established the following about Daria's pre-[[Highland High]] life:
 
* Daria was a very ''grumpy'' looking baby and toddler. ("[[The Daria Diaries"|Diaries]])
 
* She and [[Quinn]] drove babysitter after babysitter to despair with their sibling warfare, causing one to have a heart attack. ("[[The Big House]]")
 
* When she was young, she was forced to play the flute: she stopped in third grade and her dad accidentally ran the flute over two years later. The tune of 'Pop Goes The Weasel' brings back bad memories. ("[[Cafe Disaffecto]]")
 
* Daria found it hard to fit in at school and early on decided to stop bothering. Her parents would be called in to school time and again over this. ("[[Boxing Daria]]")
 
* The Morgendorffers visited the Grand Canyon when Daria was around ten or so - Helen spent the visit on her cell phone to work. ("[[The Daria Diaries]]")
 
* She was sent to [[Camp Dragonfly]] and [[Camp Grizzly]] during the summer holidays. Grizzly in particular was hell for her, causing her to be trapped with the bullying [[Skip Stevens]] and sycophantic [[Amelia]] in close contact.
 
* Young Daria had an adult library card. This meant she was invited to a lot of slumber parties by other girls, because she could rent out books with sex scenes in them (including [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sons_and_Lovers Sons and Lovers]). ("[[The Daria Diaries]]")
 
* When she was twelve, she started using Shakespearian insults on teachers. ("[[Boxing Daria]]")

Line 218:
* [[Fashion Club]]: Quinn's fashion-obsessed friends. Daria's path has crossed with theirs several times, much to the horror of both sides; they'll only deliberately seek her out if they're desperate. The Club used to pretend they didn't know Daria was Quinn's sister. Daria and Jane once casually bet on whether the Club would dissolve, and then tried to nudge events ("[[Fat Like Me]]"). Sometimes, when [[Sandi Griffin]] is clearly trying something against Quinn, Daria will take minor action to help her sister ("[[Just Add Water]]"). Daria seems more sympathetic to Stacy ("[[Fair Enough]]") than to Sandi ("The Misery Chick").
 
* [[Andrea]]: A moody Goth. Her one encounter with Daria was in "[[Mart of Darkness]]", when Daria and Jane caught her in an embarrassing situation: she angrily challenged them to "cut me up like you do everyone else". (This led to embarrassment all round when JaneDaria admitted she just wanted to buy a shoelace.) This shows Daria is unpopular even with ''other'' outcast kids, seen as an unpleasant figure to be avoided.
