I don't remember being a lefty ever being made an issue when I was younger...at all. You should take the "how lefty are you" test over on that website in my post...it's interesting. I learned that I'm mostly righty...go figure.<BR/><BR/>Lisa, I think you did the right thing, after all, I think that's one of those nature v. nurture arguments...can you really change a lefty? We can be trained, but we'll always be lefties! lolKarinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05399849455270704359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19810400.post-62173155751986847952007-08-14T01:57:00.000-04:002007-08-14T01:57:00.000-04:00One of my four children is left-handed.

I too was a Lefty until my mother switched me, she said, "It's a world for right-handed people" You said something similar up.

What's that like?" <BR/><BR/>I'm a very proud lefthander. :-) My father is left handed and fought tooth and nail not to be switched to a rightie when he was learning to right. My mom wasn't so fortunate and was forced to switch. She's pretty much ambidextrous as a result, which sometimes I envy. <BR/><BR/>I do several things right handed (including using the mouse at work to save my left wrist from overuse thanks to Carpel Tunnel Syndrome in my left wrist--but boy, do I suck at minesweeper when using my right hand!), but I'm very much predominantly left handed.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19810400.post-63011496156537865852007-08-13T21:12:00.000-04:002007-08-13T21:12:00.000-04:00I'm a rightie but my husband is a leftie.
