Oh yeah, that makes more sense than what I was thinking.
Anyway, as the others on this thread have pointed out, there could be many explanations for why you remember events the way you do. Among them, are things like “my mother has supernatural powers”, “a god exists and he is using his powers on my mother”, “aliens exist and are using their power on my mother”, etc. The most probable explanation, though, is “my memory is faulty due to a cognitive bias that is well understood by modern psychologists”.
That said, I must acknowledge that if you have already determined, for some other unrelated reason, that the probability of psionic powers / gods / aliens existing is quite high; then it would be perfectly rational of you to assign a much higher probability to one of these other explanations.
