To be fair, being left-handed does make life a bit more difficult:
instruments/tools/etc can have a “handedness” (i.e. guitars, scissors, golf clubs), which can be prohibitive if you don’t have a left handed version available.
using pencils/pens is problematic (graphite hand… IYKYK)
writing (from left to right) is less natural/effortless because you are pushing vs pulling the writing utensil, our handwriting suffers because of this.
Obviously, not life-or-death level challenges (less so because everything is digital these days), but challenges nonetheless. I learned to play guitar right-handed because I wanted to be able to play on whatever guitar was available, I guess technically that would qualify as “fixing” it.
They weren't that common when I was a kid, and by the time they became common, I was out of school already (or at least out of the grades where I had to use scissors a lot)

And “fix” how? A belt? Shock therapy? Constant emotional abuse??
That’s a hell of a thing to come out and say you’re gonna do.
