Lefty?

According to some research, hand dominance is greatly influenced by genetics. Hmmmm, parang hindi naman! ^^ Both my parents are left-handed, bakit ako right-handed pati mga kapatid ko. hehehe!  When Calleigh started scribbling, she uses her right hand. But now, she preferred using her left hand. heehee!
Here's a video of Calleigh with Papa J.

They say that you won't be able to determine your true right or left-handedness until your child is 2 or 3 years old.  ^^ Oh well, no big deal! ^^ It's perfectly "hakey" with me. ^^

Remember that it's not a good idea to attempt to influence your child's hand preference. While genetics alone don't entirely explain why someone ends up right- or left-handed, hardwiring of your child's nervous system is at least part of the reason. Forcing your kids to use their right hand when they're really a lefty is unlikely to work in the long run and will only confuse or frustrate them along the way.
