I write in a "pigeon" blend of script and cursive. Our school is phasing out cursive and part of me has a problem with it and the other part of me says "who cares?".
However, I will admit, I was taken aback last May when I went to the high school graduation party of a neighbor's son and received a thank you note written in script that was barely legible. Now, I know I should have been grateful to receive a thank you note (and I was), but how strange is it that people won't have signatures anymore?? That's just odd to me.
I plan to teach my kids cursive at home, if only so they have their own distinct signature and so they can read items written in cursive.
Come to think about it, this could be the new pig latin!! Write in cursive and your kids won't be able to read it! Voila!! Secret parent communication is safe and sound!
