    Perhaps, but till then she can go along at a faster clip. Which for someone with ADHD, I think is a plus. :)

    My general feelings regarding the whole cursive thing: Just because something was done in the past doesn't mean it's still relevant. The sentiment I see amongst those who want to keep it around goes something like, "well it's what they used to teach me!"

    This argument also applies to print books. Who even uses those anymore?

    I might not be the best at cursive, but I can type 80-120 wpm depending on the content. Unless the content is cursive LOL

    Matt and I had this discussion about whether or not our future children will even need to learn to drive cars.

    It's true. Physical books are huge and clunky and it's such a pain to transport your library from place to place. Plus all that paper is just an outright waste in the digital age.

    I had another coffee and I think it may have been too much. My heart is racing, but at least I'm wide awake and attentive, although my attention is scattered

    I read at about twice the speed on a tablet than a paper book due to the physical lag of turning page and other tools that tablets have.

    But it also comes in handy being able to read old letters or documents. It's already difficult to figure out what they say now. People are going to have to hire a cursive specialist to translate :lol:
