So this young girl late teens r early 20's come into my store and she cannot read cursive.

Did you write it? If so, I understand.

Cursive is stupid and obsolete.

I don't remember how to write in cursive. I print everything. Too many years spent on a computer. Even my signature is just my first initial and a line basically

Signatures will be obsolete in 10 years.

I had to learn it from a young age. Do they know that you have to sign for things with cursive words?

I had a few professors that said if they saw cursive on an exam, they'd automatically fail whoever it belonged to

Walrus.....I suspect u too would have a problem w cursive...... Could recognize a capital G or L?

Cursive never really made sense. Glad it’s faded.

Not these days. We got a little book for my daughter and she practices at home

Mine all were taught cursive a little at school, but there wasn't much time spent in the classroom learning it. A lot of it was sent home as homework practice and not really graded. None of my kids use it very much but they can probably read it.

FWIW, Louisiana passed a law a few years ago requiring schools to teach cursive.
