I Cannot Tell My Right From My Left

Having Aspergers, there are little things that throw me for a loop. Even a second grader can usually tell their right hand from their left. Even nearing fifty, I must think for a second or two, to figure out right from left.

I think I read where autistics right hemisphere and left brain hemisphere have difficulty communication. Maybe this is where it comes from. I'm just not sure.

I first became aware of this, once again, through observing my 20 year old Aspergers son having this problem. It's not a big thing, just another minor issue I wonder if other autistics share.
LOL, seriously, I remember teachers writing R and L on my hands. Even I would write the letters on my feet, because I can't tell them apart either without thinking.
Just some random thinking:)
