    Erm, most of the population have baby pics like this. Parents keep them as blackmail the older you get.

    Yes, I wholeheartedly agree! Then there are the pictures of me with truly dreadful hair. From the ages of 8 to 14, I had the same haircut as members of The Beatles did in the 1960s. I still remember being called Bowl Head now. There's also a picture of me with a huge spot on my nose, taken in November 1999, when all that was in the news was The Millenium Dome. Oh, the stick I got for that one.

    There are so many photo albums in this house that it would take a very long time to find every picture that annoys me. There is one of me dressed as a rabbit. All for charity, though.

    I also remember a picture of me being caught eating coal when I was around four. I used to be a cute lad. Wonder where it all went wrong.

    If I meant that taking naked pictures of babies is sick, I'd have quoted the whole message. Since I quoted part of it, I mean that part only is sick. Therefore, what I was saying is that getting reported for one such picture is sick. Clear enough to me.

    That's what I thought you meant, just thought it was worth checking though.

    I agree with you though.

    I don't have many memories before the age of about 14, to be honest.

    the ones i do have are snippets, or bits of information rather than whole memories. like, i remember that on the first day i went to school i cried for my dad. i only remember that because it was probably the only time in my life i cried for my dad and not my mum. although it's possibly because i was angry at my mum for leaving me at that godforsaken place. i don't remember anything else about that day. and i would have been four then.

    my dad claims to remember being born :rolleyes:

    If I'm not getting indiscreet by asking that, is there a reason for that? 14 seems like a terribly old age not to remember anything before.
    my dad claims to remember being born :rolleyes:
    He's not necessarily lying. I'm sure that me remembering things that happened when I was less than 2 clearly is equally unbelievable to some.

    I have a similar thing, I don't remember much before the age of about 11.

    Wait, because that (and Kaffrin's) is not normal, if I understood correctly.
    When you say "not mucH" do you mean that you remember next to nothing about those years, or that you don't remember things as good as you remember something that happened a year ago? The latter is normal, but the former doesn't sound normal at all.

    *nods* yeah, I remeber close to zero before 11 or 12, and 50% of everything up to about 15, then I guess it's average. I realise that sounds graduated degradation of memory. But there's a cut off point.

    the things i remember are pretty much all verbal and barely any visual. i remember all my old teacher's names, but don't remember what any of them looked like or what the classrooms looked like or what we learned about or who my friends were. and i suspect the few visual memories i do have are based on photos i've seen.
