I learned it in the 90s but it wasn't required in school after the initial learning period.

I think the only time I ever had to actually use it was when the SAT and GRE required us to write some oath or something in cursive. At least I think that's what was going on; it's been a while.

I still think there's value in teaching it. While I don't use the cursive I was taught, it still influenced my handwriting style in ways I find beneficial and I can still read cursive which comes in handy for anyone with interests in history.

I was born in the early 80s. When I was in school- maybe in second or third grade, they told us we were learning cursive and we had to use it for the rest of our lives. This was untrue, I never learned cursive well and never really used it. I even remember a teacher in sixth grade remarking at one point that one thing she doesn't approve of is the fact elementary school teachers lie to kids about needing to use cursive from then on when teaching cursive.

I do recall one weirdo typing teacher in middle school who didn't realize the "need to use cursive the rest of your lives" rule wasn't a real rule and was scolding some kids for turning in material in handwriting, but I think that was literally the only time it happened, ever. (I don't recall why a typing class had a handwriting component, I think she probably usually never received written material from kids and was greatly confused as to why it wasn't in cursive on that special occasion, maybe she was filling in for another teacher?)

I've always struggled with cursive (Reading cursive, that is, I only use it to sign my name) and have never bothered to learn it from a book- I've read Gen Z may never have learned it or may be bad at it- so I may have been ahead of my time.

I was born in 2000 and learned writing cursive. After some years of my teachers complaining that they are unable to read my chicken scratch one of them suggested I should try to write in „normal“ print lettering instead. This solved the issue and I haven’t written anything in cursive since.

Middle millennial here. I learned cursive in elementary school for a few months. After the module was over we all went back to printing and nobody made us write in cursive. I can probably struggle through most of the cursive alphabet but I couldn't write the alphabet as a whole.

Use it for what? The only time I've been required to use it in the past 25 years of living and working in the US was taking the GRE in 2002 or so. The test itself was all via computer but you had to write a paragraph (specifically in cursive) promising not to cheat.
