Last year, I had a strange dream. My father and I were
walking through a canal with difficulty as thousands of fish were
released around us. In the dream, I knew that the fish thought
they were drowning, as if they had to face death before becoming
adults. The next day, my father told me that when I was three, he
had taken me to see fish being put into a pond. I could not
remember it, but the vision had stayed in my mind. Memories,
like images, can return years later in unexpected ways.
Today, it is common to see old images suddenly appear
online. We spend hours looking at photos that record our daily
lives in ways never seen before. For young people under
twenty-five, who have grown up with social media, childhood is
no longer private or mysterious. According to Kate Eichhorn, a
media historian at the New School, this constant exposure is sure
to affect how identity develops, although we are not yet sure
exactly how.
Eichhorn explains that there are two sides. On the positive
side, children and teenagers have more control than before. In the
past, adults were the ones who decided how childhood should be
remembered, using books, photo albums, or home videos. Today,
young people can create and share their own images without
depending on adults. This gives them the power to tell their own
stories and decide what to remember about their lives.
On the negative side, social media can make it difficult to
leave the past behind. We are not the only ones posting—our
friends and families also share moments of our lives, often
without asking us. This makes it hard to forget mistakes or
change identities. Eichhorn warns that the danger now is not that
childhood disappears, but that it might never end, because the
past is always visible online.
It would, indeed, be surprising if we could see painful
memories as finished and gone. But most difficult experiences
are not captured on screens. Social media shows only part of life,
often the happy or triumphant side, and leaves out the tears and
struggles. What remains online is rarely the full truth, but
fragments that stay with us, shaping how we remember ourselves.
