Why Do We Remember things From Our Childhood?

RE: Why Do We Remember things From Our Childhood?
Yes, childhood memories are re-converted and re-processed heavily. What you actually experience is probably going to be dramatically different from what you originally experienced.

I know of studies where parents "planted" memories by mentioning false events during a casual conversation. Researchers then asked the children about the events several months later (I don't remeber the exact details, actually), and found that the "memories" were remembered as sensory events.
