What the hell. You mean they weren't teaching kids to write in cursive anymore?
My cousin's a kindergarten teacher and when she said they aren't doing that anymore I nearly lost it. Her reasoning was that there was so much curriculum to teach they just can't squeeze it in. For me there has to be SOMETHING that isn't as important they can ditch. Today I get students that turn in homework like it was a 4th grader who wrote it, tomorrow it'll look like a dyslexic quadriplegic who's having a seizure is writing it. Don't get me wrong I'll happily accept typed up stuff, but still writing should be pretty damn fundamental, while I might not use cursive much, I think the years learning it actually made my printing looking nicer.
