Is that really true? I have memories from the age of about 3-3.5 onwards.
- cecilpl2 5y agoAs do I. I credit my dad with this. From a very young age he would frequently ask me what my earliest memories were, and ask me to recount them in as much detail as I could remember. That really cemented in my memory a few key moments in my life from about age 2.5 onward (the birth of my younger sister, meeting some of my childhood best friends, etc)
- AdrianB1 5y agoUsually only the most intense memories last from that age. This is why usually childhood trauma affects a person for life, but it is not usual to retain many memories from that age range.
