That still ain’t normal dude. You’re supposed to be able to recall memories from any point of your life…
You actually can't. Human memory is really quite terrible. Most of your older memories are likely distorted by other people telling you about them, or even just the natural decay that occurs whenever you recall a memory.
That is just factually incorrect And what people lie to themselves to make them feel better. Humans are great at recollection, why would you claim otherwise…?
The age 0-3 is the only time you should have zero recollection, anything else is something you should talk to neurologist or psychologist about, but sure lie to make yourself feel better I guess…?
So, what's your point? Other people might have a lot more boring childhood anecdotes to tell, but it's not like I'm suffering in any kind. I still remember people or useful skill - the stuff I do use.
As an added benefit of growing up quite poor, I probably just had less unique experiences I actually could recall. Like, I've been on three travel vacations overall. Kinda like those COVID years blurred together for most people.
