I've heard some schools are reintroducing it now, but that doesn't help those that never learned.

There has been no argument. I think kids should be taught how to write well as (and you agree) it has benefits for their whole school learning experience.
You are replying to me with moronic shit all over this post because you are adamant that time could be used for something better. Maybe an insults class? Seems to be what you want to practice the most in your adult life.
That’s the thing, we do teach kids to write well. In a script they’ll actually use. It almost feels like you feel the need to make this pointless argument just so that you can justify the time you wasted learning cursive. Like as a coping mechanism.
We just don’t have that problem. We write what we need to write in a way that works and for everything else we type. I feel for you that your students are evidently so destitute and your school system so inadequate that you don’t have basic, cheap technology available to your students and children, but that’s just not a problem we have. It’s not any kind of deficit for us that we don’t teach cursive anymore. It’s the most non-issue with our school systems anyone could possibly think up.
Ha, you revisited my suggestion for improving your insults and called me poor and tried to blame my position on a coping mechanism again.
Are you a chatbot? You talk like a chatbot.
I didn’t call you poor, you called yourself poor. You tried to argue that having access to a cellphone was some kind of privilege of wealth that is unattainable for the average person, and literally said it would be ignorant to assume otherwise. Either it’s normal in your country to be so poor that you can’t even afford a cheap smart phone, or it isn’t. And if it isn’t, then you admit that people have regular and easy access to a note taking device and you were just bullshitting me. I can’t answer that question, only you can.
Tell me more chatbot.
I’ll take that as you throwing in the towel lol.
Sure, the best way to win an argument, wearing the other party down with nonsense, repetition and insults.
Maybe you can teach that in your schools along with forced nationalism, Christian values and typing.
Well since your argument isn’t based in reality, you have to make it all up as you go along. I guess you just ran out of ideas. It was bound to happen eventually. Now that you mention a chat bot, I have to wonder if you were just feeding my comments into chat GPT and copy and pasting its responses. Your responses do lack the context of object reality much like chatGPT would. It would explain a lot.
Ah the old reverse uno card. You got me.
