    My grandmother insisted I use my right hand to write. Turns out it doesn’t matter that much now, I barely write anything at all. When I do, though, it’s a horrible scrawl, although I don’t know if it’d be the same had I been left to my own devices.

      If it makes you feel any better, I’m left handed and have always written with my left hand and my penmanship is atrocious.

        I can imagine it being more difficult to push than pull, especially in cursive.

        But don’t feel bad, I’m right-handed and write right-handed and my handwriting is also atrocious.

      It would be a horrible scrawl smeared across the page, but your hand wouldnt cramp as bad

      My mother’s art teacher would hlsmack her with a ruler whenever she tried to use her left hand. Destroyed her passion for art at a young age.
