Childhood memories falsified. Being from a large family, and having lots of childhood stories told to me over and over again, I know that some things that I remember are not wholly my own memories. Some things I remember almost photographically never really happened at all. Memories of relatives that died when I was very young, do I truly remember them, or does my brain just cobble something together out of the stories that I heard?
