Tom is trying to determine if something his 8-year-old daughter is telling him about really happened when she was 4 years old. She claims that someone stole her doll and then ran over it with a car. Her description of the event is a bit vague, and also sounds similar to a cartoon he remembers her watching then. What is the likelihood that she is remembering a real event?

The likelihood of her remembering an actual event is very slim

Explanation:

Due to the fact that Tom recalls the incident his 8 year old daughter is trying to relay to him happened in a cartoon, it is unlikely it happened for real.

The 8 year old is telling her father Tom, that her toy was ran over by a car in an event that happened years ago. Her father remembers that was a scene from a cartoon so it is very likely that what the 8 year old thinks was a real event was in fact her recalling the cartoon and interpreting that it happened to her.

An 8 year old's brain isn't fully developed to differentiate reality and fantasy and as such, such occurrences are not rare.
