Nope.
Legibility > speed.
Only if you suck at cursive. Depending on how much effort I put in, both my cursive and print writing can look nice, but writing cursive causes mess stress over time. If I'm just jotting a quick note it doesn't matter and both look like ass, but if I'm taking notes for lecture or in a D&D campaign or something like that, where I'm writing a bunch over an hour or more, I see a huge drop off in quality after a bit of time when writing print.
My mother sucks at cursive then. I have to constantly call her when I do her shopping. If it was for personal notes, it wouldn't matter, but if you're communicating with other people, it's terrible.
It's selfishness. Your mother wants to save herself time by writing the quick way, and doesn't care if it costs you more time.
