Reply To: Children not allowed to use pens

Actually, most schools are not teaching cursive anymore, since it’s not really used. Also, Schools are using laptops, so barely any writing involved either way. (This does not include most frum schools tho). Personally I always wanted to use a pen but now that I can I use pencil anyways. The only time I used pen was in 7th grade which was the first year I was allowed to . Pencils are so much easier.
