Sara,
In my research there was never any link made about "passing along" cerebral organization. I would be quite surprised if there was a connection between mom's handedness and child's symptomology.There weren't any studies that I found that talked about that. Especially since the docs were still trying to figure out handedness in the originial person and what that might mean. The offspring will have to wait.
I would be more tempted to look in the direction of genetics, but that is also a fuzzy field. No one has ever come up with a good answer for the person who has all the genes but not the disease or problems one would expect. And, the person who doesn't have the genes but has the problem.
At any rate, I hope it is not something you are feeling guilty about. If so, don't! That won't do you or your kiddos any good, and there's no evidence for it!
