Guest guest Posted April 5, 2002 Report Share Posted April 5, 2002 Hi , ...about the hand preference....I have identical twins boys that are apraxic and will be 4 at the end of this month....Logan has always used his left hand and Brendon is right...then around October last year decided to try his left and I swear it is because of his brother....his pre-school hand. teacher felt he needed to make a " decision " so she decided to try and make him stick to his right hand and I did always feel that was the one he wanted.....now I see him coloring and writing with his left and eating and throwing with his right....I teach Kindergarten and this year have a girl who is left handed in my classroom and when gets home is righty....her mother and I had no idea until the first parent/teacher conference and I said something about being lefty and she said " no, she uses her right hand " .. After 17 years teaching I had never run into something like that!!!!!! The psychologist at my school said that it was still ok because she was doing fine academically and that probably with maturity she would stick to one hand..but some kids do do some things with one and some things with another.....and about the nice language ....I have written before that my one twin says sht...and the " i " sound isn't really present but you know what he is saying and now the other one called me a " too-pee a (short a sound)-hoe mommy " = stupid asshole mommy..(I hope I didn't offend anyone)....I really love to hear the new words even when they are bad and do correct them...but deep down am happy......about the pro-efa dosage...I would be hesitant about jumping to 3 but I am only a mother with no scientific knowledge so I am sure others will jump in with that question......Kathy NJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
