    Because people " forget " how the behaviors came into existence, that is
    they
    are not aware of how those behaviors were build up.
    Our mind plays a game with us.

    I found this,

    " Memory muddies our look upon puberty "

    The Northwestern University Medical School claims that our years of puberty
    were not so bad or not so good as we suppose they were.
    There were only two memories left,
    one:- the income of the father
    two:- memories of girlfriends

    One of the scientists says that the study shows that indeed puberty is one
    of
    the most difficult periodes of our lives to see clearly.
