I am glad i went to school in 80's.

       Penmanship was mandatory when I was in Elementary School.
       I am glad I was taught cursive hand writing because it has so
       many uses.
       With  i-phones, computers and the Internet many school kids
       are skipping paper, pens and pencils. I do not know how they
       are going to communicate in the future.

How funny... a friend and I were speaking about this the other day. He asked me if I knew how to write Q, F, X, or Z in cursive.

Handwriting in general is used a lot less than when I was growing up. Technology has definitely changed how we do many things. I'm generally for the convenience, but I do wonder at what we're losing sometimes.

Cursive writing is becoming a lost "art".  I am 60.    We used to write many handwritten letters to my parents and siblings.  Email and even texting has taken over.

The generation above me has beautiful penmanship.  I have gotten more sloppy when I write....kind of a mix of cursive and printing.

As for breakfast conversation....I live alone, so if I am having a breakfast conversation I am talking to myself...it happens

I was taught cursive in elementary school, but I hardly use it anymore. In fact, I've forgotten how to write a lot of the letters that aren't in my name and thus in my legal signature.

I love cursive writing and am rather obsessive about it.  I used to write letters when I was a teenager (hey I am old as dirt we didn't "text" back then................lol..............and if I made a mistake I wouldn't cross it out I started the entire letter over.....I prided myself on my writing but I see what you mean about the letter Q.  Oh and I am not much for breakfast conversation about anything haha prefer silence in the morning.

Yes, cursive is interesting. I don’t know where the cursive capital “Q” came from.
