My theory is that no matter how you are taught to write cursive, everyone ends up eventually developing their own unique style of penmanship. The cursive that kids learn in grade school is really nothing more than a foundation for each person to build their own style upon. If this weren't true, then everyone's signature would look the same and forgery would be a lot easier.
