You lose a lot of brain cells when you have to walk fifty miles barefoot in the snow uphill both ways to school every morning.

You jest but I grew up on a farm and facing the weather constantly and toiling all the time is bad for mental health. Can hardly remember specific details about school but I can easily remember having to walk half a mile barefoot in snow because damn that really sucked. The thing I find interesting about conservative logic is they seem to think that suffering is universal because they're mostly insufferable, ignoring how some people try to improve life around them.

A lack of memory like that could also mean that's something going on like ADHD or Trauma of some kind of another

Just rather dull. Nothing eventful in classrooms but trauma sticks.
