SUBJECT: Clumsiness and Lefthandedness
My daughter is lefthanded and an incredible klutz. She literally walks into walls. She has broken her nose and finger playing softball this summer. In the past she has slpit her head open TWICE in one summer diving into the pool. The list goes on and on. This has been happening since she was a baby. I have taken her to the doctor to have her eyes and hearing tested...to be check for ADHD etc. All they tell me is "she's a klutz". I am beginning to wonder if being a lefty in a right handed world has anything to do with it. If anyone has any insight into this, please HELP!!!!!!
