The famous Italian director Bernardo Bertolucci said affectionately in his film "Dream of Paris":
I don’t believe in God , But if I believed him, he would be a left-handed black guitarist. The classic line
unknowingly raises left-handers to a very romantic height. However, being good at art and emotion does not meet people's standard perception of left-handed people. Most people are more willing to believe that left-handers are inherently smarter than ordinary people. The phrase " God is left-handed " by Pauli, the great physicist of
, actually drew an equal sign between left-handed and high IQ .
and so many parents are delighted that their baby is left-handed, thinking that they take advantage of smartness. However, in addition to joking, the inconvenience and incompatibility caused by left-handers have also caused parents to fall into new entanglements: Should
choose "smarter" or "more convenient"?
may only be able to make better judgments when parents know the "past and present" of the left-handed.
The "past life" of left-handers: Left-handers suffer from unfair treatment.
Don’t look at people nowadays who don’t have too much opinion on left-handers. In fact, throughout history, left-handers worldwide are without exception. With a heart-wrenching history of blood and tears, 's unappreciation has almost become a common problem encountered by all left-handers.
In Western countries, the degree of social suppression of left-handed people even compares with the Jewish not to mention . In the major European language areas such as English, French, Spanish, and Italian, "Left" is regarded as an unlucky and unpopular word.
Even if I look up the "Oxford English Dictionary" now, the explanation after the word "Left" still retains the negative connotations of disability, clumsiness, and stupidity. Even left-handers were once considered disabled.

Eastern countries also have no favor with the word "Left". In traditional Chinese culture, the meaning of "Left" is mostly related to negative and derogatory meanings. Under this kind of language and culture environment, it is not difficult to understand that left-handers are not treated.
In fact, the unfair treatment of left-handers is much more than that.
In a 1921 paper on psychiatry, left-handers were regarded as a manifestation of mental retardation. Z3z
Cesare Lombroso, the father of modern criminology, pointed out that left-handers have potential criminal tendencies.
Fortunately, these "unnecessary" allegations were denied in subsequent scientific research. Some organizations dedicated to the interests of left-handers came into being, and people's attitudes towards left-handers have changed.
"This life" of left-handers: The most important thing is to understand the causes of left-handers.
★Left-handers are the result of cross-dominance of the left and right brains.
Brain development studies believe that the emergence of left-handers is actually the result of cross-control of the brain. As we all know, the control process of the human brain is not simply to control the same side, but is the magical phenomenon where the "left brain" controls the "right body" and the "right brain" controls the "left body".
The left brain is called the "academic brain", and human abilities such as language and logical thinking are controlled by the left brain. The right brain of
is called the "art brain", and human emotion expression, spatial imagination and other abilities are controlled by the right brain.
In other words, the left-handed organs used by left-handers (academically called left-handed) are actually made under the control of the right brain.
Actually, most of the children are double-handed when they are born. The reason for the distinction between left-handed and right-handed in the later stage is that, in addition to the influence of genetic factors, it is actually the result of brain development.
Professor William Brandler of the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom found that after a long-term study of 3300 volunteers, he mapped the decisive gene for left and right handedness to a PCSK6 gene.
researchers pointed out that thisThe most important role of a gene located in the left brain is actually related to language. They even put forward a new point of view: the common right-handed person in is actually a "gift " for human language learning.
In other words, the newly born children do not have the habit of using left and right hands, which are commonly used by them. However, because of the PCSK6 gene, children will constantly stimulate their left brains when they learn languages, which eventually leads to the development of the left brain into the "dominant brain" . The result of the left brain becoming the "dominant brain" is the flexibility of the child's right body Degree will rise sharply, and eventually right-handers will appear.
and left-handers are more like an accident in this normal development process, because the child's exposure to language is short or for some other reasons, the left brain does not develop into a "dominant brain", and left-handers naturally arise at the historic moment.
Left-handers are born smarter than ordinary people? Scientists’ new discovery: Most people think the problem is complicated.
don’t know when it started. More and more people believe that left-handed children are naturally smarter than ordinary children. In particular, the left-handed habits of some famous people seem to accentuate people's understanding.
The picture shows Bill Gates signing
with his left hand. But unfortunately, more and more experiments have shown that the gap between left-handed and right-handed IQ is not as big as people think. The problem is complicated.
Whether there is a difference in IQ between left-handed and right-handed people is no longer a completely new topic. As early as 1969, Jeffry Levy of the California Institute of Technology conducted an exploratory experiment. Afterwards, the University of Cambridge and the University of Bradford had three times to "make bricks" to oppose it, which set off an upsurge of inquiry around the world.
Until recent years, researchers have collected 255,100 samples, and concluded through big data collection and surveys: left-handed and right-handed are just the difference between the dominant hand, and there is no gap in intellectual development.

There is no intellectual gap between left-handed and right-handed people, but these advantages and disadvantages are only available to “left-handed”
●Left-handed advantages
According to the brain cross theory, children who are accustomed to left-handed have better right brain development . You must know that the right brain is an "emotional brain", can provide left-handed children with an innate sense of space and image thinking . These children often have more advantages in these aspects.
Even in some competitive events, the uncommon left hand can cause a lot of trouble to the opponent. The famous
athlete Xu Xin is a typical left-handed player. In the men's doubles table tennis match, Xu Xin and his teammates complement each other's right and left hands to effectively "strangle" the opponent's sharp attack.
●The disadvantages of left-handers
When it comes to the disadvantages of left-handers, some left-handed friends can be said to be helpless and sad:
is not only inconvenient to write, but also an operating system designed for right-handed people. The mouse and keyboard make left-handed people. We are suffering, and even the common left-handed vehicles in China are "full of slots" in the eyes of left-handers.
Left-handed children need "correction"? Many parents are doing it wrong
In the eyes of some parents, left-handers always look so "different". In order to make children better adapt to this right-handed society , correcting children's hand habits is almost the most common for Chinese and foreign parents. One thing to do .
In fact, parents do not necessarily have to correct their children's left-handed behavior, especially the compulsory correction that some parents violate the developmental characteristics of their children, which is quite wrong.
Harvard Medical School in the United States shows that the success rate of parents in correcting their children's left-handed habit is only 5%, even if the correction is successful, it will cause serious psychological effects on the child.
King George VI of England in the famous film "The King's Speech" was forced to correct the habit of left-handedness when he was a child, which led to severe stuttering.

The left-handed child is actually just a small episode in the child’s brain development. Since it is harmless, why bother parentsEmbarrassing children?
