Any Lefties?

[support_bae]

I used to be left handed when I was a child and my parents didn't like this so they tied up my left hand until I could use my right hand.

Do you think this is cruel and would you do this to your child?

 

[Ricochet J]

Off course it's cruel.

 

[DJMK4]

It's not a normal thing to do that's for sure :/

Why dont they like lefties ? Also how long for and how long in the day? I call shinanigans

 

[ng93]

Yes, it's very cruel.

Also did it work?

 

[J-FRO]

That's pretty Victorian.

I'm a lefty, so is my dad and both my sisters. Mum's the odd one out, the freak.

 

[Shayper]

Didn't the Victorians use to do this?

 

[MeEsH BaKkA]

Yes. Defiantly. It's totally normal behaviour, it's a well known fact that left handed people are not normal and have no souls along with gingers and Gordon Brown.

 

[theNude]

that is massively cruel. I am a lefty and proud!

 

[SeraphX]

They done that to my mum at school, but that was back in the '50's tbh

I'm the only lefty in my immediate family, and my uncle's a lefty, thats about it i think lol

 

[Tephnos]

That is a stupid thing for them to do.

I'm left handed.

I'm a leftie, nothing wrong with it and why you'd think it's to force someone out of it is beyond me.

 

[OpenToSuggestions]

When my brother was little he kept picking things up with his left hand and my mum kept taking the objects out his left hand and putting it into his right hand.
Being a lefty is awkward.

 

[RomanNose]

Are you doctor who by any chance?
What kind of parents would do this?

 

[Tephnos]

To elaborate, I only really write/draw with my left hand. Everything else, being right handed, I just learned to use with my right hand.

Except fapping of course.

 

[Brookert]

Im a lefty! I use my left hand for everything, except one thing for some reason

 

[DJMK4]

I couldnt imagine touching myself with my left.

Or Touching others.

 

[indyskyz]

Im A lefty

OP if you're not trolling then that verging on child abuse tbh

I dont know about other southpaws but I only write and use scissors with my left hand
I have a stronger right side so prefer to throw and kick like a normal person but have a lot of more precision with my left side

 

[MeEsH BaKkA]

prefer to throw and kick like a normal person

 

[DJMK4]

Does anyone have the ability to use both left and right side with equal precision and power?

That's pretty much a cut and dried case of child abuse. The primary school that I went to held all records going back to when it first opened. I obviously already knew that my great grandad also went tthis school when he was my age, but I found out that he was naturally left handed, but his left hand was whipped so often and so hard, that he had no choice but to adapt and use his left hand. As he got older, the arthritis and rheumatism that he suffered, by his account was 10x times worse in his left hand.

Thankfully now, church has no say in education, even if you go to a very religious school, religion still has to be kept from the class room. I went to a RC school, and refused to go to mass, and pray in the mornings. Was never judged for it.
