The First 3 Years of Your Life Are Missing

You spent your first few years learning to walk, talk and figure out the world, and you remember almost none of it. So where did those memories go? Were they never made, or are they still in there somewhere? In this video, we look at the experiments that tracked this forgetting in real children, brain scans of awake babies, the mouse studies that brought “lost” memories back, the competing explanations, and why your earliest memory might not be a memory at all. What’s your earliest memory, and how old do you think you were? Tell me in the comments! #psychology #science #brain #memory
