To the Op, don't fear this is a nation wide thing. They have cut cursive out of most schools around the US. Just another fine example of tax dollars at work.

Be 100% honest here.
Aside from someone's signature when was the last time you wrote something in cursive or read something that was written in cursive?
For me it was so long ago I can't remember when it was.
Also, learning cursive is not the same thing as learning a different language. It is learning a different way of writing the language that you already know.
