Sinister Southpaw

Facebook – Stonekettle Station

A 4-year-old was allegedly forced by his teacher to write with his right hand, even though he’s left-handed.

As another of the sinister (left-handed) nature, I can vouch for the existence of the stigma against the left-handed. My primary school teachers wanted to make me right-handed as well. My mother refused to let them convert me. There is a real risk to being left-handed in a right-handed world. Southpaws have a higher rate of accidents since most systems are designed for righties. I sympathize with the child and wish him luck.
