You can write properly without writing cursive (though I admire that you write cursive while blind). Isn't clean printing that anyone can read better than cursive?
As I said, I learned cursive, so I've got nothing against it. I just am not sure I see the point of the time, or the effort. My child wants to learn a foreign language and piano. This pretty much fills up my "extra" teaching time, so I'm just trying to figure out if it is worth trying to squeeze in cursive as WELL as printing.
I'm disabled now, but I used to work in engineering, and cursive was pretty well forbidden there. Block printing is clear, concise, and easy to read.
Cursive is pretty....but is it useful?
