Old joke.
Two medical students are chatting. One says that they read an article that said the better adjusted a person is the further back they can remember. An emotionally stable person should be able to recall many things from pre-school and an exceptional person could remember learning to speak.
"So what's your earliest memory?"
"I snuck a beer of of my parent's fridge when I was 13."
I have a handful of token memories going back to when I was one or two. But kindergarten and school are just blank voids. It took me up to when I was about 30 to realize I did not have a happy childhood.
I had a fine childhood. Nothing I would consider abnormal in a traumatic or negative sense, and the fidelity of my memories have always been limited. Some brains just aren't designed to hold onto the past ... which is quite comical because I the things I do remember, I remember strongly; even when they're essentially irrelevant. Oh well.
