Love this post, thanks for posting it. I've said for years that we are an overstimulated society. Most everyone wants to be entertained not informed. Even what would be considered common knowledge a few years back seems to have disappeared from our society.
I was told that some schools are not teaching cursive anymore. Everything is being taught in print because those coming from Mexico only know how to print and there isn't time to teach cursive.
That's just one example of how something that was so fundamental to our learning is being removed.
