Other than the signature problem, I'm OK with not learning to write in cursive. Maybe it's because that was the only "D" I ever got, and pity was the only reason it wasn't an "F". But as an engineer and draftsman for 45 years, no one ever had a problem with my printing. The important thing is to be able to communicate clearly and to precisely understand written communications. I share the concerns with calculators vs. understanding basic math. I used to do a lot of basic trig calculations in my head, but after I got a calculator with trig functions I lost the ability. Basically I think we don't do our kids a service by allowing the use of calculators, CAD programs, etc. UNTIL they have mastered the basics of the subject matter. Once the basics of a science or other subject have been learned the use of devices makes the student even more effective, but if the basics are not learned the device just masks incompetence.
