My kids only had one quarter of cursive writing in school. It simply is not taught much anymore. Kind of like Latin is a dead language, cursive is going away.

Cursive is obsolete.

If you tell them it's cursive they'll probably get mad for teaching their kids to swear

They don't teach kids cursive anymore.

sigh... I hope you have terrible handwriting... sadly, I think its probably just a family of morons...

Your hand writing must be awful

WOW, there's not much to say about that. And people wonder why our country is in the shape it's in.

Wow, the fact that he parents couldn't understand what you wrote and that they thought it was in Spanish is astounding. It makes it hard for the teacher, having to spend time re-grading after so much time has already been spent. However I can also understand where the student is coming from. I had a university prof, who would grade papers in cursive. It was neat and not all over the place but it was very tiny and the letters weren't easily distinguishable. It was often a challenge trying to decipher what was written. Sometimes, if you asked her what she wrote she couldn't even decipher her own cursive.

I write cursive for everything because it's much quicker and I've been told it almost looks like script. That makes me sad if people are no longer able to read it... Oooh! We can have a secret coded language!!

The fact they thought it was Spanish is amusing, but there are seriously too many teachers whose handwriting is awful. I've had so many profs write comments and I literally couldn't understand any of the feedback. It's extremely annoying.
