You can't create amnesia. You can, however, employ what is called selective memory. We all do that. It's driven by selective hearing (among other things). A kid can be oblivious to what's said to him (like 'come in and clean your room) until he hears something that gets his attention (like 'anyone for ice cream?'...
There's a bottom line here....we can remember best what we pay attention to.Is it possible to give yourself temporary amnesia?
You can't FORCE it unless you have severe physical or emotional trauma. =)
