Teaching cursive is still important, and helps brain development!

I believe schools still need to teach cursive, and that it helps brain development.  As a teacher, I hear many horror stories now about grandparents or aunts and uncles giving their young teenage relative a card in cursive and being shocked that they can't read it!  Also, historically, even the Declaration of Independence is in cursive!  I worry it is dangerous for cursive to become a lost art, only known by higher socioeconomic families who are demanding it in their schools.
