DON'T try to change the handedness of your children!  Such attempts
have been implicated in reading disorders such as dyslexia and in
decreased coordination and manual dexterity.  It's been eight years
since my last psych class, so the details are hazy, but it has been
firmly established that trying to change handedness is a very bad thing
to do to a kid.
