In fairness, most legal documents that I have seen have a section that says print clearly right above the one that says signature. I learned cursive in grade school, too, but I haven't used it in decades. More so, I can barely read my own cursive, much less the scratch that other people write.
So just mark your 'X'. Then how can it be proven that you signed it?
Anyone can print and you won't be able to tell who printed it.

What a great, sneaky and brilliant workaround. It looks like you may have found the key to upending our entire system of document verification.
Then again maybe someone already thought about that.
Every jurisidiction that I have been acquainted with requires an uninterested party to witness someone signing with an 'X". Many require 2 witnesses that have to be able to sign.

All handwriting can be proven, print, cursive, or a hybrid of the two. Handwriting analysis does not rely on cursive.
I can read and write cursive (well, I can read most cursive, but sometimes it is a struggle), but in practice I use a weird hybrid of the two. I'm ambivalent about cursive being taught. Teaching coding and higher level computer skills is arguably more important today. It would be nice if we could do both, but alas we don't have the time or money for it, apparently.
Hopefully the OP isn't in a situation that "only got worst!" Best case scenario, she's in a remedial English class so she is actually able to teach, instead of just claiming to do so.
