I find it strange that cursive is what you're taught first. :-) Print
is easier to produce, I think, plus it's much more similar to what is
actually printed in books, so it seems to me that when you learn to
recognize the letters, you would also learn to produce them, and the
most logical system would be to learn to produce them the same way you
read them. Do kids in France learn "when you read 'A' it looks like
this, but when you write it, it should look like this"?
