Mirror Writing

I'm sure I've read somewhere that children's mirror writing is a good development as it shows that there have been a connection in the synapses in the brain which controls body 'handedness' or something. This is for children who have been writing their name quite happily and successfully for a little while and then suddenly start to write it backwards, as if viewed in a mirror. Has anyone else come across this research, I've googled it but not found anything. I'm constantly reassuring parents that it's a good thing and they're not to worry about it - and particularly don't tell the child 'it's wrong'. What I generally do is encourage the child to start at the top left of the paper if they are tending towards the right hand side. I'd be thrilled if anyone knows what I'm talking about!
