My first memory
I have never thought about my first memory. Now that this was a question here in LangCorrect, I must try to answer. This is a difficult task because memory is very fuzzy and it tricks you as well.
New information associated with time can even create false memories. My oldest memory can be one of those cases. I was very young, maybe 4 or 5 years old.
There was a wooden floor at home that I can't even name it in my mother language. It was made of wooden slats and had intentional cracks, like in a deck; I think we could call it a deck, but it was more like a huge part of the house. It was very common for us to lose coins and other tiny items under the floor and also very common for us to lift one of the slats to catch the objects that fell there.
It wasn't easy to get things from down there, so we always had to put our arms there and try to catch without seeing what was there. Let me rephrase this: I ALWAYS HAD TO. My hands were thinner than my parent's.
One day, I lifted a loose slat and, well, there was a knife and I found out about that when I saw blood. Such a painful memory (it was really thin and sharp) gave me this memory. I think it is true and it would make sense such a strong feeling to be registered in my long-term memory.

You cannot use "that this" together in a sentence. "On" is the proper preposition for context you see on websites. For example "on Facebook", "on Twitter".

"Native language" is the most commonly used term for your first language. "Mother tongue" is also used but it is not as common. "Mother language" is unnatural.
It was made of wooden slats and had intentional cracks, like ion a deck;. I think we could call it a deck, but it was more like a huge part of the house.
If you mean the word "deck" like a deck of a ship, you would use the preposition "on". For example, "There are sailors on the deck."

"Catch" means grabbing something before it falls to the floor (for example "I caught the baby before she fell.") or apprehending someone or something that is trying to escape. If the object is already on the ground, you would use "to pick up".

It depends. Did you have one parent or two parents? If you had one parent, then what you wrote was fine. If you had two parents then you write "parents'"
