Article: We should stop teaching children joined handwriting

The range of readers' comments to this article are indicative of the very differing views on the topic of joined handwriting:

Of course I don't agree. I think we should teach print, well, at first. And when that is secure (around the age of 6 to 7), teach fully joined handwriting, well.

Here is my free video guidance and free resources:
