Re: I know it all to well

For her part, the whole "tiger mother" trauma was such that she doesn't remember much of it 20 years plus later.

Now you know better than to repeat the idea that trauma suppresses memory formation.

I think a better explanation is that we all forget an awful lot that we once knew - and much more than we generally acknowledge.

This may be for the best, as these findings suggest ⚠️ ↗. Still, there are degrees of memory and forgetfulness, and different degrees of these are doubtless useful for differing purposes. (These other findings ⚠️ ↗ also suggest that useful and harmful traits are often connected.)
