[quote=Anonymous]My 9 year old ds struggles with handwriting to the point where his teacher has suggested moving on to a keyboard because his difficulty with writing is inhibiting his written work in writing and math. His teacher has also said that by age 9 there is little that can be done to improve handwriting and I have heard this elsewhere too. I am fine with moving to keyboarding but is there anything my ds is losing by not handwriting or not trying to improve his fine motor skills? Can his fine motor skills be improved. I don't want to torture him if it's pointless but by the same token I don't want to give up if it's not a completely lost cause. Fwiw his cursive is better than his print. Thank you.[/quote]
