She might be cross-dominant. This apparently confused/annoyed my teachers growing up. I only write with my left hand and do almost everything else with my right side.
I'm right handed but left legged. I did long jump and jumped about 4 feet farther using my left leg. Does that count? I know it's different but I find this kind of stuff interesting.
Yep that's an example of it.
Isn't that how it usually is? Having the eye and leg be opposed to the hand, I mean?
I'm not 100% sure, but nearly every left-handed writer I've met does everything with that side maybe minus their dominant eye. But unlike me they still throw, kick, etc. with their left side. I suppose cross-dominance is more common than people realize since it was trained out of so many generations.
No, handedness is the main thing that's uneven
My dominant eye is definitely right side, same as my hand. I don't know statistically though.
I write left handed but do some sports activities right handed, like golf, unlike my brother who plays it left handed but writes with his right hand. Not even blood related, technically step brothers but we only bring that up in bars after confusing people since we look nothing alike. for baseball I keep having to remember which hand I prefer to throw with to figure it out, I'm not good at sports anyways heh.
I throw like Lisa Simpson with my left hand even though I tried to train it. You might be more ambidextrous than cross-dominant.
