Replying to ringo

oops! lets try again with the text this time.

if you're between the ages of 18-30 and you can read this, let me know, and include your age in the comments. I remembered a while back, while reading something about the modern education system, that they were no longer teaching cursive writing.. So this begs the question, and a real poll. :-) If you're old, I already know you can read this. 😁

My kids are ten and eight, and they're learning cursive at school. I also write in cursive, with a fountain pen, but my writing is so bad it's essentially a crime against humanity.

Not in the US, no - where they are at school, there seems to have been a drive to go back to a few of the more rigorous ways of teaching (eg they are actually taught a lot of grammar and elementary mathematics, which is pleasing)
