Let that child be.There is nothing wrong with her.Left-handed people have their brains wired that way and it is not abnormal, just a difference.

What you could just do is just encourage her to be skilled with both hands but don't insist on her changing to right hand.

Just so you know,Barak Obama,Bill Clinton,Ronald Reagan,Babatunde Fashola,Angelina Jolie,Prince William,Oprah and of course Raphael Nadal left handed.

Ishilove:

Cc Thorpido, Evilbrain, eyinjuege, goodheart02 and all the doctors in the house.



Since I have been called in by Ishilove, I'll drop my own contribution.

My dear Ayantoyeopeyem, to be candid with you, i'll go straight to the point. Your daughter is a unique child because only 10 percent of the world's population are left handed. Most lefties are better at multitasking with higher IQ; and as a result can assume quick roles as leaders. One of the advantages of being left-handed is that it forces the brain to think more quickly with sharp memory. And they have been blessed with a brain that can withstand shock better, thereby preventing stroke. Though recent researches have stated that they're more likely to have Crohn's disease, Schizophrenia and ADHD, but in rare conditions. So my advice is groom your daughter like the star she is and watch her become a phenomenon.

Lol I use both hands conveniently. Recently I was using my left to pick something from a counter and one superstitious woman was upset, she thought I was being stylish or something. I had to tell her I wasn't acting and the next thing she said was "Eyah" as if it was a kind of deformity. Thank goodness I use both sha, OP allow the child abeg, there's nothing wrong with being left handed

Contrary to popular belief, not all left-handers are intelligent or smart......

That said, please do not force the poor child to use her right hand. It's not her fault she's lefthander. Yes, we live in a right-handed world and there's bias against left-handed people but don't let what people say or do get to you.

Growing up was something else as my learned parents (mum in particular) thought it offensive to do anything with your left hand besides wipe your assss. She'd force me to hold stuffs and write with my right hand. I ended up in the middle. I'd use my right hand when she's around and switch to the left when she isn't. That was how i became ambidextrous. I still favour my left hand while washing or holding stuffs. I just can't help it. You need to see my handwriting, it looks like a chicken's scratch. I blame my mum for that.

The moral of the boring story is, don't try to change her. Allow her develop in her own way. Forcing her to change hands may have very bad effects in later life as well as being traumatic at the time and ruining her handwriting

Pictures of your handwriting please.

I don't see anything wrong, I use the left hand for almost everything it's just like using the right hand, it's very nice especially when brushing your tooth it feels more comfortable to use than the right hand, the only thing I use my right hand for is to write and eat

And yeah.. every left handed person I know are usually intelligent
Re: My 1yr 8month Old Baby Uses Left Hand. Right Or Wrong by EvilBrain(m): 9:24am On Jun 26, 2017
The rule against collecting things with your left hand is muslim thing that came from one of the prophet Mohammed's many superstitions. Unfortunately, it has been absorbed into our culture with few people realizing where it came from.

It doesn't have any basis in reality and here is nothing wrong with your baby. The people giving you advice are ignorant. Ignore them.

Your Pregnancy and Conception is here!

Making preparations for your newborn shouldn't merely be a case of choosing a fashionable name or a place to nurse him/her. It should start with yourHEALTH and yourWELL-BEING!
Preparations should start well in advance, even before you first decide to conceive - making room for another in your life.

MAKING IT HAPPEN!
If you are healthy and have a regular menstrual cycle, if you're in your child bearing years; natural conception is usually not problematic. As a healthcare worker working with Anchorage Link Services and a NEOLIFE nutritional distributor; we advise that every woman begins with our super supplementing strategies that can assist her with her pregnancy easily.

Let us help you start with our GNLD Feminine Herbal Complex, it gently supports normal female function and help restore your body's hormone balance. Secondly, every woman should be taking a daily supplement. As we suggest our Pro Vitality+ or Formula IV Plus pack. Every woman planning her pregnancy need to do the same, very importantly is monitoring your Vitamin A intakes – not more than 8000 I.U daily.
Also, I believe we all know it takes two to tango, so it’s important that your husband’s health is at top gear, as we request that he also takes our GNLD Healthy Nutritionals. Likewise, “wanna-be Dads” also needs to start earlier than their partners. While a human egg takes a week to mature, the sperm takes up to four weeks to be fully formed. Zinc is essential in this process as zinc deficiency can lead to a low sperm count. So, we ask that you supplement your body with GNLD’s Chelated Zinc.

THE START OF A VERY SPECIAL TIME:
After conception, you should continue supplementing, when the test results are in and you know you’re pregnant – it’s time to pump up your GNLD Nutritionals and but discontinue with Feminine Herbal Complex. The first few weeks after conception are particularly important for your baby’s healthy development. Oxygen is vital to sustaining your life and the development of your baby. You’ll need supplement with Chelated Iron, to aid the production of red blood cells which carries oxygen to every part of you and your baby’s body.
As the unborn baby rapidly develops, cells split at a phenomenal rate – fuel your healthy nutrition with our several other GNLD Nutritionals. You’re probably going to find that you’re initially nauseous and later on continually hungry.

GNLD Nutrishake is not only fantastic for supplementing nutrients, most importantly your proteins. You’ll need to first consult with your obstetrician or gynecologist before starting any medication or supplementation programme during pregnancy. Likewise, a qualified dietician for great advice. It is also very essential that you continually replenish your Calcium levels. Because as the baby’s bones gets developing, so also your calcium storage is depleted rapidly.

With many-years-gone-by many women lost their teeth, as a result of this deficiency. GNLD Cal-Mag or her newly introduced Chelated Cal-Mag with Vitamin D3 – three tablets daily is essential. Cal-Mag should be taken throughout life as a precautionary step to prevent Osteoporosis as one ages. Studies have put major emphasis on the importance of omega-3 fatty acids in human development and health, even from the foetal stage. GNLD’s Omega-3 Salmon Oil Plus, is great for the brain development, controlling bad cholesterol and also for aiding heart health; benefits for both you and your child.

During pregnancy, a hormonal and physical change often leads to uncomfortable bouts of constipation, which can lead to a painful hemorrhoid. How rich are your fibre contents in your diets? You’ll derive great benefits from our GNLD Multi-Fibre Blend; with our GNLD Fibre Tablets to an awesome relief.

AFTER THE SPECIAL DAY
Healing, regaining your strength and starting to feel your old self is the first challenge many moms encounter in their journey into motherhood. Giving birth, whether naturally or through Caesarean section, can be demanding and requires good deal of healing. Vitamin C in the form of chewable All-C or GNLD Vitamin C Sustained Release used in collaboration with Chelated Zinc is known to assist the body to heal quickly.
We get some many questions from newly moms with regards to their sudden weight gain during and more after birth. You can plan to shake off these excess weight carefully and safe with a daily comsumption of our delicious Weight Management Protein drink(s) found in NEOLIFESHAKE(S).
GNLD, is your trusted healthcare partner!
The most important aspect of your pregnancy is that you feel supported and rest assured that you are doing the best for your baby and yourself.

Suggested GNLD/NEOLIFE Nutritionals for expecting moms are; Pro Vitality+, Formula IV Plus, Chelated Iron, Neolifeshake, Cal-Mag or Chelated Cal-Mag with Vitamin D3, Omega-3 Salmon Oil Plus, Multi-Fibre Blend or Fibre Tablets.

Woman leave that child alone oh. This was how my dad kept disturbing me to stop using left hand. He was able to achieve that though , but on my part ,it affected me later on in life.


Presently, I find it hard to comprehend certain things when ever it place on the right side. But once you divert to the left direction instantly it cling to my brain.


In a nutshell, please dont introduce confusion into the life of that little child just like what am battling with.

There's nothing wrong. Just help her learn to use the right hand also.

I basically use my left and right for almost anything, only thing I can't use my left to do is to write fast(my right is a lot faster).

Naturally, I was born ambidextrous, my dad used to scold me when I was younger for using my left but today, its all good.

My younger sis is purely left handed, but learnt how to use the right also except she can't write with it.

Hope this helps

Nothing wrong with her using left hand. You can train her to be ambidextrous instead of enforcing her to switch to the righ hand only

Just like Rafael Nadal.

Just to set the record straight: RN is actually right handed. His uncle forced him to use his left hand so he could have an advantage over other tennis players.

shocked

The 20months baby is obviously recalcitrant if she won't take corrections from her parents....meaning she will be difficult to teach as an adult.

You don't have a single problem with your daughter being left-handed but others do, so you really need to satisfy those people and it's getting you worried that your daughter won't comply.

It's so easy....
Since you are more concerned about what other people think, when your daughter is sleeping; cut off her left hand.

Then give it to those people and explain to them that your daughter couldn't become right-handed or ambidextrous so you had to do this to show you had really tried as her mom.


LMAO. grin grin grin grin
