I didn't put this in the Education section because it goes beyond that. Whether homeschooling or using brick and mortar, unschooling, private, public, Waldorf, Montessori or whatever, that doesn't really matter. That is, while the method of education may apply, I'm just wondering what general opinions are for children and adults (young and old) alike.
Do you write in cursive? Do you hand write notes? Do you think this is important for kids to learn and do you care if they are learning it?
Our state will no longer teach it in public schools. There are a lot of varying opinions about this decision. I would hope they'd still teach it, as I think hand-written notes are nice. I also wonder about so many records, historical notes, etc. that will become illegible because kids are not learning how to read cursive script. Thoughts?
