SUBJECT: FORCED TO BE RIGHTY
I don't know if it's cultural or not, but my parents have a negative connotation attached to being a lefty. I was a natural lefty, but they thought something was wrong with that and they forced me to become a righty. If I was eating or writing with my left hand, they'd switch the utensil over to my right hand. My cognitive psychology teacher said that this could be the cause of my problem with spatial relations. Does anyone have other information?
