Due to the development of individual brains, most people can only remember things about 3-4 years old, and some people can only recall things about 9 years old at the earliest. However, it does not mean that things before the age of 3 can never be remembered. In some special circumstances, such as the loss of consciousness before a calamity, these memories may reappear.
