I was wondering where false memories come from?
My dad has been phoning me constantly to make arrangements for me to visit with the kids next week. We'll be travelling there by train and staying at a hotel.
My dad now has it in his mind that I cheated him out of taxi fare the last time we visited. We always get the train to London, then a taxi across London, then another train. I have never been on the Underground with my kids, but dad is convinced that this is what we did on the last visit, even tho he gave me the money for a taxi.
Then he also has in his mind that we've stayed at this particular hotel before. He keeps telling me how he's booked us into the same family room as last time - but we've never been there, and the last time we stayed at a hotel during one of our visits was 1999
I'm finding it harder and harder to be patient with my dad especially (tho my mum is just as bad). They just go over the same stuff over and over again, and I'm at the end of my tether (for those who may not remember, our house was flooded last month, and I just don't know how much more I can take of anything right now). - Sorry, just needed to get that last bit off my chest
