I substitute taught in an 8th grade classroom a couple of years ago . . .wrote on the board in what I thought was decent handwriting. A boy stood up and said loudly, “We can’t read cursive!” to which others chimed in and agreed. I asked some teachers later and the student’s weren’t kidding. I subbed later in the elementary level and there they were writing cursive . . .a seemingly change in the curriculum. By the way, the students in that 8th grade class couldn’t print either.

Our educational system has permanently handicapped multitudes with their teaching fads and stupidity.
