I can remember as far back as I was four years old. My mother told me not to touch the barbed wire and I did and she ran over to me to spank me and I took off running! I ran right over to my father and she walked over to him and started yelling and she got a hold of me and spanked me good. The problem is...I'm not sure if this was a memory or if this is something my mother told me. What is your earliest memory?

I can remember lying in my pram and kicking my sister. That must have been before I was 2. I can also remember quite a lot of different events that happened to me before I was 4.
I have noticed that women seem to have better memories for their childhood than men, do you think that is true?

I never really thought about that. Maybe because we are so emotional and hold on to things we remember them where men are not...not sure.

I can remeber too one incident of the time when I was four years old. That wonderful incident was birth of my younger brother. People started taking care of me too much so that I will not be jealous of him. And perhaps it was my family-members'wisdom that I had never been jealous of him.
