    Today was remembrance day for all the victims that died in the 9/11 attacks. Were you old enough to know what was happening at the time or do you remember where you were that day?

    I don't remember that day since I was only 4 years old at the time of the , but I was probably at home watching cartoons since I didn't go to preschool.

    Elementary school, first heard about it during recess. My school decided to not say anything about it leaving it up to parents on how they wanted to explain it. Somehow some students found out and then spread the rumors during recess, so we didn't know much. Then when I got home my dad had the news on TV. Scary day.

    Heard it from the news while my parents gasp in disbelief. I was a kid back then, with no clue how big it was.

    Honestly I wouldn't be able to remember the event at a young age. I was most likely with my family at home, but definitely far away from New York.

    Considering the fact that i was really young back then during the years of my childhood when i didn't have my own self consciousness (in terms of remembering those times) and i was so little to understand what even had happened to begin with.
    I guess i was in my home with my parents at the time and personally i haven't asked about how my parents felt about it because it never occurred to me to ask when i found about it and to be honest it is quite predictable how they would respond so i don't bother with it.

    I was in my home with my mom. We were so scared back then and became paranoid for a whole week.

    What I remember about it is waking up to have breakfast and first thing I saw was my bro with his eyes wide open watching the news.
