Wtf, this literally the font taught in Polish schools for handwriting. I write like this.
yeah, everyone writes like this here too. i was shocked to see americans print each letter individually like they were illiterate...
It really do be an anglo only issue it seems
i've asked some anglos on IRC just now and they seem to think cursive is reserved for perfect-looking 18th century-style calligraphy or something. think the font-face of the US constitution.

eh, i see no point in teaching it two ways, really. just teach cursive from the get-go. kids will pick up block letters (or whatever the american way is called) on their own if they want to.
or stop teaching cursive entirely. either way is fine, it doesnt really matter, just stop making cursive a thing :D
