Cursive made more sense when our writing tools were bad at being picked up often.
This isn't 1897 anymore grandpa.

To thee, I wish I could grant but more than one vote of up.
I was taught cursive in my elementary school years. Since leaving elementary school, I have basically only ever used cursive to sign my name, and even then, calling it "cursive" instead of "illegible scribble" would be charitable to say the least. I think I encountered maybe one document ever in my adult life that weirdly specified that I transcribe a printed sentence into cursive. I get that there's other things taught in school that I do use that others absolutely don't (trigonometry for example), but I can't imagine cursive being a necessary prerequisite for any common modern career path.
I learned it in elementary as well, and I'm glad I did. I wish I had more opportunities to use it because I also use it only for my signature. It's stupid to force kids to learn it, but I also hope it doesn't disappear in the future, outside of calligraphy.
What a weird thing to be annoyed about...cursive writing.
Does telling 24 hour time or being able to read an analog clock also bother you?
Also folling up with fuck trump and his Nazi crew..don't want to give ether impression that I actually approve of 99% of what they are doing.
It's old people bullshit. "School should be like it was in 1948, where we chanted multiplication tables out loud."
I would suggest a small module on reading cursive because there's a high likelihood that the school children of today will come across a document written in cursive, but there's no need to waste their time teaching them to become proficient in writing cursive. Might as well require them to learn cuneiform for all the good it will do them.
