80s I was told I was holding it wrong. Don’t known if I would have been left handed as penmanship from both hands sucks.

Can confirm. My kindergarted teacher in the early ‘90s slapped my hand with a ruler. Not sure if it was for religious reasons (there was no indication) or she just thought it was wrong. I write with my right hand now and my penmanship is shit.
