[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Consider disconnecting the issue of Sensory Integration Dysfunction from hand dominance. My adult son has the latter and is a lefty. We ensured teachers knew he was a lefty (runs in the family and his preferences were evident early on). Everyone provided accommodations to help offset the reality that we live in a right-handed world. Nothing was forced on him (e.g., right vs. left-handed scissors), rather choices were there for him and the adults observed which came more naturally, then facilitated those preferences through his upbringing. He writes left-handed He uses a mouse right-handed He plays baseball as a lefty He plays guitar as a righty He's happy. We're happy.[/quote] I wish I were given a choice in school. I learned to play cello and guitar in school. There was never an option to play left-handed.[/quote]
