  • I think most of my classmates in school didn’t write in cursive. Some did, and I infact nearly forgot how to write with non cursive letters in my own native language (writing a legible letter to my at the time crush was a pain in the ass, as my handwriting is physician-like, and I had to remind myself of non-cursive). We were taught cursive in 2nd grade and forced to stick with it (in primary school, and only when the teachers had to look at our assignments), so it comes naturally to me. But I think part of the problem isn’t just a low touch culture, but also the lack of necessity to write in cursive. I guess part of that might be misplaced guidance, the teachers helping the kids with something they are really capablr of doing on their own (or should learn to do so), and not helping at all with others (we learned cursive from prewritten examples, and I don’t recall being helped when actually writing in cursive.). Might be a reason as to why I struggled with keeping up with dictated texts when we first did them.
