Gen x? No, millennials ~~were the last Gen to learn cursive~~ learned cursive too
Gen Z here, learned cursive in elementary
Did you learn typing as a Gen Z person? I'm curious as my kids didnt and I taught them myself.
Like typing on a keyboard? Yes, but I had already known how to do so since as long as I can remember so it didn't make a difference
I don't think one has to be the last to learn a thing in order to be able to realize how pointless learning it was.
My writing is a combination of print and cursive. It's nice. Readable and pretty.
My capitals are pretty much the same as printing, the rest is cursive.
My kid is learning it now (UK primary school). His writing is awful because he's supposed to do it the way he's taught instead of finding his own way to make it legible. He has a talent for drawing neat little cartoons, so he can clearly manage a pencil, but his writing is near unreadable.
That's ridiculous. Those small children could be learning something useful like epistemology instead of wasting their time with selfish letters.
My daughter is currently learning it in Canada. And she likes it way more than non-cursive (I dont know how it's called in english).
Depends on the country
