Parents with older kids in high school or college. In the US, is there really a need to have kids practice writing and learning cursive? Do they even write anything as they get older or do they mostly type out assignments and exams.

this question is wild. yes all kids should thoroughly learn handwriting.

okay i interpreted your original question a bit differently. still though, i think this is a good practice! english and math are basically everything and handwriting well and having confidence doing it is a big component of it. also i still hand write notes a fair bit

What is this writing you speak of, OP?

funny

Nope

My son learnt it in school. He does take notes in class, albeit on an iPad notes app.

My opinion see how legible their handwritten notes or so irrespective of school or in general life needs focus on that to be improved, as mostly the opportunity to write reduces in school and college but there is still needs to write in certain circumstances. Cursive or not is not much of a matter nowadays

I’m not bad with money but definitely lots of room to improve overall, due to several personal factors I don’t want to list in full here (numerous unanticipated medical bills, bad boyfriends, etc.) Hence why I only have $3k in savings right now. My first mini goal is to have $5k saved by the end of December. I need motivation and words of encouragement. If I pay off my medical bills, I won’t make my goal. I have to start putting saving money first. Getting depressed about my situation.

How are you guys thinking about booking appointments for 1st time H1B stamping? Every time I open the site, there are no slots available for 2022. I’m sure majority of you have faced the same. Also, heard that some people have reached out to agents and got their booking done via them. Is that even a safe option? At this point of time, having being waiting for appointments for months, I wonder if there’s any other option ?
