Cursive is not taught anymore it is said, because keyboarding IS. People are moving away from hand writing or even printing because they are using various type of keyboards including on phones.

The problem is that if a person cannot write, they cannot read either. The letters are merely more indecipherable figures. These illiterates move out into the world and will not be able to decipher a note written by the boss. They will require everything to be by text. Just as American children can no longer do simple arithmetic, they will not be able to write a simple sentence.

And they really think they will be employable.
