I am left handed and my parents are both right handed which made learning even more difficult for me than for other children. Eventually, an older boy who was also left handed taught me and the rest was history.</p> <p>Except that&rsquo;s not the end of this story - I always had problems with tying shoes ever since. To be clear, it wasn&rsquo;t the tying of the shoes that was a problem as I grew into my teens and beyond - it was the fact that my knots always seemed slack, which led to me having to re-tie my shoes constantly, and then eventually giving up and just tucking them in, leading to backpain and bad posture.</p>
