E Wildflower Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 My father is right-handed and my mother is left-handed. I checked "ambidextrous" for myself because I do many things like a left-handed person, but I learned to write with my right hand. I once asked my mom once which hand I used to draw with before I learned how to write, and she said both. Link to post Share on other sites
Dreamer23 Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 I'm conflicted on how to vote! The thread title and questions don't match Me and my dad are right handed - simple, done. My mum is left handed though, but usually writes with her right hand since she was forced to write with it in school. Writing with the left hand wasn't allowed back in the day in her school (might smear ink and stuff I guess?) :/ Link to post Share on other sites
Félinferno Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 My step-dad is right-handed, my mum is right-handed, and I myself am right-handed. Not sure about my biological father though. Link to post Share on other sites
Island-Of-Dogs Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Mom- Right handed Dad- Right handed Me- Right handed. My three brothers (Two elder half, one younger full) are also all right handed, as are the vast majority of my Mom's family. Dad was adopted as a baby, so no idea about his bio relatives, but all of his adopted family are right handed. So we're all a bit boring with regards to this feature apparently.

Quintus Crinis Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 mum: right dad: right me: "ambidextrous" - usually I use my right although it still isn't great, while my left is like a 7/8 year olds and my main hand elsewhere. So my parents and I think that I may have been left but made to use my right from a young age. Link to post Share on other sites

LunarianLight Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I'm the only lefty in my family. Mom, dad, sis...all righties. Don't ask me how that happened! Link to post Share on other sites
Dark-Spirit Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Left-handed here, and both parents right-handed. Damn, being the only Left-handed kid in the whole class during school was embarrassing, and smearing ink happened daily. I still don't know if I have a messy handwriting due to being left-handed.

KnowinglyDifferent Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 I'm not sure the author will see this, but could you maybe add an option for those with single parents? Like a third option that says "Not present" or "Unknown"? Thank you! Link to post Share on other sites

Like a third option that says "Not present" or "Unknown"? Thank you! Or also, ppl might have 2 dads or 2 moms. So maybe u could just put parent #1 and then ask for the gender and then put parent #2 and ask for the gender. Along with putting the option for single parents. Link to post Share on other sites
