Read this - writing in cursive uses both sides of your brain.
"Brain mapping, as it is called, shows that during cursive writing both the right and left hemispheres of the brain are active. This is something that is not present either while keyboarding or writing in print.
This right-left brain synergy, when both sides of the brain are used simultaneously, promotes improved language and memory functions.
Some brain researchers go further to say the more we integrate the logical (left) and intuitive (right) sides of our brain, the greater our skill at innovation — the ability to analyze problems and solve them with out-of-the-box thinking."
The best way I found to study was to write it out. Merely reading the material didn't stick in my brain, but what I wrote it all in cursive I could recall about 80 to 90 percent. There is something brain stimulating about cursive writing.
This is the real reason they stopped teaching cursive writing---so younger generations couldn't read this. Just a theory.
Plus cursive helps to connect ideas.
You are probably right. However, An ability to read existing documents in their original form does need to be taught in schools.

Your mind functions differently when you need to spell the whole word before you write it. Unlike in print you can sound it out letter by letter.

Oh, literal Harambe.
Until recently I just called it writing. The idea of not being able to write ‘cursive’ baffles me.
I would not doubt it
Great theory. You lose all rights that you never knew you had.
I agree partially...you can find it in many forms in non cursive.
