Kids not being taught cursive writing

I work with teens everyday and have noticed that they struggle with signing their names in cursive. They say that it is not being taught in school. I guess they dont need it anymore.

These kids have a write to learn cursive. Keep God out of schools and keep cursive in.

Not to hijack but I once dated a girl in college who couldn't tell manual time. She went to private school in Mississippi. I remember just thinking how crazy that was that she never learned. Do a lot of people not know how?

This is the biggest problem with our education system, for sure.

Kids in 4th grade at STM are required to turn in all of their work in cursive for language arts class.

Muthusala you would know. So you compare cursive writing to hyroglifics. Good analogy jackass.

Won't be long before writing isn't taught in school.

Considering the Declaration of Independence is written in cursive and not hieroglyphics it's probably a wee bit more relevant.
