using left hand

Hi every body,

My second son krishna is using left hand for every thing- for eating, playing writing , drawing colouring, even in playing computers he use left hand to click the mouse and doing fast etc. Should I make him to pratice in right hand. some people are telling by changing it will effect his brain.. Is it true? so Iam in confusion what to do?can you gave your suggestion

hi Lakshmi,

I think by nature he is left handed, So do not change his dominant hand to right hand..
as it will affect him,
a friend of mine was a left hander and her parents made her to write on right hand forcefully ..her handwriting even after she grew up was not legible .

my brother in law is a left hander.. he writes with left hand..eats with right hand..may be when your son grows up you can train him to eat with right hand...

Thanks
Prabha

Lakshmy,

My son is a by birth a lefthander. being in a very orthodox joint family, could not allow him to be a lefty..(mainly my fil ) my son had too many confusions in writing, eating.. though he writes using right, he has more strength in his left.he bats with his left...

I regret for not leaving him a lefty..

Yes a natural lefty's brain is different than a righty.

so you leave him as he is.....let him do what others do with their right with his left. no harm yaar.

Hi My Hubby is a left hander but my MIL made him write n do all the things with right...he is good in writing and eating with right hand but he will do cooking n playing his musical instruments with left which he feel very comfortable..till date i fight with MIL why did she do it..

Think like this Amithab Bachan is left hander so ur son will become as good as him..

Hi Lakshmy,

my 10yrs old daughter is also a lefty.Lefties are more brain sharper than
righties.so dont try to change his habit,you may spoil his handwriting.

hi friends,
thanks for your advice and encourgement. let him be the lefty and sharp brain person. I am not going to change.
