When I was in school, several decades ago, we were drilled on cursive constantly and we were always always told by every teacher that in Junior High School and beyond we could ONLY use cursive. This is how the adult world writes.
Then in Junior High they just said "yeah, cursive is hard to read, so don't use that, ever."
Always wondered why elementary school pushed us so hard when it was just 100% dropped the moment we were supposed to REALLY start using it.

...ahhh... Now that just makes me mad! There is [proof (references at end)(https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/memory-medic/201308/biological-and-psychology-benefits-learning-cursive) that cursive is good for learning. A few simple searches provide so much more... I am sorry Fren that they did this to you!
