[QUOTE="witzend, post: 212897, member: 99"] I was thinking of this just the other day. M refused to write, all the way through high school. I was never a big fan of writing, either. I went to Catholic school and our class sizes were huge. I don't ever remember anyone just not doing it, though. It was more than your life was worth to refuse to do work. Anyway, the thing I was wondering about was penmanship. We did penmanship from first grade every day. Mine was always awful, said the nuns. But, it gave me a strong base to build upon. I was wondering if the schools (and home schooling) put an emphasis on penmanship practice anymore? M never got over being antagonistic about writing. But he doesn't seem to mind word processing...
