I was the other way around. My dad tried to make me write with my left hand because he was also left-handed, but I was naturally right-handed. However, compared to most people, I don't have much trouble using either hand. I'm not quite ambidextrous (Writing with my left hand looks atrocious.), but most of my motor skills are approximately similar in both hands.
Left hand

I also have a left-handed old man, but I can't quite recall how he taught me to write. Whatever the effect, I can't write with my left at all (but geez, I can hardly write with my right anyway). I can paint with my left and shoot pool left-handed though.

I've been told I draw them "backward"...I also have a left-handed old man, but I can't quite recall how he taught me to write.

)I use my right hand for writing, but everything else i prefer left hand. I have my fork in the hand were every one else have their knife My grandma tried to make me change that, but I never really changed. I can eat the other way thou, I just prefer to do it the other way
When I was about 10 I decided it would be good for me if I started to write with my left hand, so if I broke my right hand, i wouldn't be in that much trouble. Now, I write almost as good with left as with right.

My friend is actually left-handed now because he broke his right arm in first grade. :crazy:I use my right hand for writing, but everything else i prefer left hand. I have my fork in the hand were every one else have their knife

Oh I do this too! Most of my teachers in high school thought I was left handed because my handwritten would go all slanted by the time I got to the right side of the page. It all comes back to how I change the way I hold my pen depending on where my hand is.Yeah, I have some things that feel better "southpaw", and there are certain things I do that make people believe I'm left-handed.
