Hmm, interesting. Perhaps it is more of a lack of dominance rather than cross dominance. He is definitely not ambidextrous. It isn't that he can do things with either hand. I haven't asked, but it doesn't seem that he's comfortable with both either. It is that he does SOME things with his right (like writing and eating) and some things with his left (like all sports related activity). When he was very young I was worried that he was being taught to write right handed but he was actually left. However, that didn't seem to be true. But writing and fine motor tasks have always been a challenge for him and these are the things he does with his right hand. He is significantly less clumsy with the activities that are left dominant.
Polarbear, we did do the neuropsych eval this summer and are awaiting the results. I am definitely going to ask about this in the follow-up.
