    replaced by keyboarding and computer skills.

    I took those as well as cursive. Plenty of time for both.

    just like we study historical documents transcribed by historians and educators.

    And it’s always better to have the skills to read them yourself. And being able to read cursive opens up lots of interesting documents, many of which have not been transcribed.

    And once again, cursive is extremely easy to learn.

    You learn a second language to speak a second language.

    And to read in that language, and to translate from that language. Learning cursive is like learning a language, yet it is extremely easy to learn.

    if I didn’t waste so much time learning cursive

    What time? Cursive takes almost no time to learn. I learned it at the same time as learning print writing. It added almost no time to our writing classes, and I have the ability to read and write in both.

    Why are you wasting your energy on this then? You could have shut up many comments ago
