Lost Skills That May Never Be Revived
When young, many life lessons were taught immediately, like, using manners when in the presence of adults and having common respect for other people. Cursive writing was also introduced in elementary school as a disciplinary tool.
Technology continues to march on with cutting edge, exciting breakthroughs every day. Humans might even be able to live on Mars one day, if Elon Musk has his way. Being old school, in some ways, no longer holds appeal for most people.
Some things that may forever be lost to modern technology:
Using an Abacus
Building a Fire
Respectful Debate
Coping skills
Effective Communication
Reading Paper Maps
Cursive Writing
Letter Writing
Writing Checks
Balancing a Checkbook
Telephone Etiquette
