How do young people sign their names today? Is their signature in print!!?? It just dawned on me that it must be! Could they decipher John Hancock's John Hancock? And most of them can't read a non-digital clock! I recently watched a video of two teenagers trying, without success, to dial a number on an old rotary phone. I don't see any of this as progress. I may well never do it again but today I offer kudos to Josh Shapiro. Bring back cursive nationwide! I (barely) recall learning cursive in elementary school, early/mid 70s and recall being very nervous about the requirement in the next grade that ALL assignments MUST be done in cursive. We all survived. As a left-handed person it was a bit tougher but I managed.

Since so many forms and applications are online now, I bet a lot of young people just use the digital e-signature tool that makes a "cursive" signature for you
