They should be learning them both. All of this discussion of "why not this instead of that" is wrong, because the children should be learning it all.
There is not a known limit to the amount of things a human being can learn. Each and every one of us should be trying to learn more, all the time. The more skills you have, the better.
There is a limit on time and resources though. While it would be nice to teach everyone everything, that's not possible.
Also whatever's taught in schools is mandatory. You can't just skip cursive lessons if you don't want to bother
You could learn to both type and write cursive, but you could also learn to both type and make balloon animals. Cursive writing in the U.S. doesn’t serve much of a purpose academically. I learned cursive as a child and have since forgotten because the moment I left elementary school there was never any reason to use it. Only cursive I use is to sign my name.
