Me neither..I know in the computer age, handwritten letters are not the norm but I still handwrite (in cursive) thank you notes..personalized letters etc..I wasn’t aware they don’t teach cursive anymore. I remember in the mid-70’s learning cursive in 2nd/3rd grade. The dumbing down didn’t take long..sad

My grandson was learning cursive in kindergarten in a public school in Tennessee. He now goes to a private school and they are still teaching him cursive. And yes, he knows its cursive. I’ve also heard from a teacher friend that they are no longer teaching it in public schools in North Carolina.
