is not knowing whether to push the door or pull the door a dyspraxic thing?

even if the door has got a sign, I still find I do the opposite to the sign, so it is possible.

Me too! Always push not pull and vice versa. I so love those doors that swing both ways!!! :whistle:

lol me to, its really annoying though because sometimes when am so busy working out whether to push or pull the door suddenly loads of people comes from the other side and open the door and so i have to wait there for a while untill they can get past ](*,) does this ever happen to you when you pull and push the door but it still wont open #-o

Nah, I think the push or pull thing with doors is true of anybody, little to do with dyspraxia.

What Jim said - anyone can mess up with the door system!

Though it is probably a higher likelihood in dyspraxics.
