So I had a flabby nikka moment, when did they stop teaching cursive writing in school?

My sig is an actual scribble with maybe a readable letter or two

Just some scribbling that I can consistently do.

I’m a lefty so fukk cursive and her momma too!

 

[Ironman]

My cursive is immaculate cause I took pride in my handwriting (my OCD)

On another note kids are also not taught how to write checks or read clocks anymore

Not read clocks?? I didn't learn about writing checks until junior high to highschool

My son is in the first grade and he did a lesson on reading the clock a few weeks ago. Now he looks at the clock on the wall and can tell time right away. So it’s not done way with everywhere.

I’m generally for teaching kids more but honestly cursive writing isn’t needed. Yeah it’s pretty but might as well be teaching kids calligraphy.

So i guess nobody buys cards and write things inside anymore.. I can't imagine buying a valentines day card and printing a intimate salutation to my lady.

they taught us cursive in 1st grade and then we never touched it again for the remainder of my grade school education.

@Born2BKing do you remember D'Nealian writing?

Had us wasting our damn time learning all these damn writing styles only to have texting and typing replace them all.

 

[Heretic]

are people walking around looking at Coca-cola labels, andThe Royals logo, or The Dodgers logo like this

kids be looking at baseball jerseys like they wrote that shyt in hieroglyphics. Talking about "I like the red team"

I still use cursive to sign off of documents at work.

Also, I got sent to Larry's garden when I asked the car sales breh where's the CD player in the 4Runners and Lexus GX460.

Slim hit the when I asked that.

It shocked me when I heard it but I understood because of the digital age. I learned about writing checks in the 4th grade, I was in a gifted and talented program and the math teacher taught us how to write checks and balance a checkbook (we also learned about the stock market)

What grown man can’t write in cursive?

How do y’all sign your signature?
With a fukkin Pikachu stamp?

It’s good to know that they still teaching it, honestly I felt like a old head hearing about the stuff we had to learn in school that they dont teach anymore.

Well they usually teach cursive handwriting during the early years of school (2nd-5th/6th grade) after that in most K-12 school districts don't continue teaching it knowing how to write in cursive isn't a necessity in life although some consider it to be due to the fact you can make your signatures more distinct for security purposes compared to standard handwriting in which anybody can easily mimic your handwriting.

It's harder to copy someone's cursive handwriting compared to their basic handwriting .
