I have a thing with my wrist where I don’t have great fine motor control and my handwriting is adversely affected. I once handed in a whole essay and my teacher couldn’t read any of it. I also couldn’t remember what I had written so I essentially had to make it up on the spot again.
After that no one wanted me to write in cursive anymore. But my handwriting was still pretty bad given the whole wrist thing so they decided that I had dyslexia (I didn’t but that’s apparently an easier excuse than my wrist doesn’t work) so I had to scribe. Finally they admitted that maybe a laptop would be a better idea. The whole thing took them about 5 or 6 years to get through though. With them demanding cursive for at least the first two years.
I don’t think I’ve written anything down at all beyond maybe “happy birthday” in about 25 years.
