I have been wanting to ask this question for a long time.

Personally, from my parents to the last kid of my family who is only 8 yrs old have a good handwriting.

So I always wonder if it is anywhere related to genetics.

I don't believe it is.

Used to have very bad handwriting until I started imitating my primary school teacher. I now have the only good handwriting in my family.

Maybe, if fine motor skills play a factor

Everyone's handwriting in my immediate family is different, some beautiful, some ugly as hell (mine)

It is, but not in most cases, as far as it can be read and understood, how it looks like doesnt matter.

If I fire my horrible writing someone will recognize it. Thank God for computers.

Almost all my dad's warnings about my bad handwriting came to nought

for me I don't have same pattern of writing, different ball pens, different writing pattern's, my writing using a pen is always different from my writing using a pencil. I can't really say look at the way my writings look like, because different scenarios can inference my writing looks.

My dad has the most beautiful hand writing I've ever seen. He receives compliments from almost anyone that gets to see him write. Mine, on the other hand, is more or less meh. grin Just about as good as Pocohantas', but better than that of Ibkayee. grin

So, it is not genetic.
