      [quote=\"Champion\"]I am a left-handed myself and so I can know the \"inconvenience\" whenever I am in a group esp wedding dinner! ๐Ÿ˜‰ You know - how awkward it is when you have to sit with \"strangers\" ๐Ÿ˜‰


      My DD2 is also a left-handed and recently I realise that my 22 month old bb is also too :imcool: . I did not insist that they switch to the right-handed although knowing the \"inconveniences\" it will bring in the future. But as soon as my DD2 started pre-school 3 years ago, I have made it known to the school that she is a left-handed and she might encounter certain problems - like writing will be not \"straight\", etc....But so far so good, she is doing well and she is now in K2.

      Hi Champion

      Good to see you here! I am also a leftie, my 2005 kid too!

      Hi picolo :hugs: ,
      Glad to see you here too! :snuggles: so both of us are left-handed mummy with left-handed 2005 kid! :hi5:[/quote]
      :hi5: :snuggles: Come to think of it, I didn't even know of any leftie gal classmates in my entire pri sch days, only 1 Malay gal in sec, and only 1 in JC class. Leftie gals quite rare hor? BTW I also have a 2002 kid like you! :hi5:

                      Hi all,


                      Am coming back after busy with my newborn :).

                      Am very appreciated with all your advises n experiences. Indeed it helps me alot.
                      My 1st DD still use her left hand when come to drawing or eating. Yup, I don't mind...won't force her but will guide her. Eventhough difficult to teach her writing as am a right handed.

                      She is 3.5 yrs old, but she still can't hold her pencil well. Any activities or classes to enhance her motor skills so that she draws/writes better. She can read, count, etc very well...only lack of her motor skills.

                      If u hv any suggestions , please let me know. Thanks

                        Hi all,


                        My girl uses her left hand dominantly. Come to writing/drawing, she uses her left hand first, awhile later she changes to her right hand. Because she feels tired. Guess I need to train her motor skills more, so she won't feel tired easily.

                        Am abit confused whether she is really a left handed. After she started prenursery, she can use both hands.

                        How do we know whether our child is left handed or not? When Will we know whether she is really left handed or right handed?

                        My dh n I are not left handed, but my grandma and my nephew are left handed. My left hand stronger than right hand, but I always use right hand

                        Please help with ur opinion/experience.

                        Thanks
                        My 3 DS (3,5,7) use left hand just like my DH. Sometimes they will use right hand to eat or do certain things but writing will always be left. There are certain inconvenience when it comes to writing cos I am right handed so I need to sit opposite him to teach him writing. And when the 2 DS were younger they will have some problem to recognise and write d and b, p and q. Please do not try to correct her like the old folks did, just let her brain develop the way it is. I was told by a neurologist. ๐Ÿ™‚
