I have a check book. I don't think I've written a check in 6 months - it's all done through bill pay systems that keep track of in/out/pending/cleared. etc. as part of their service. I'm very aware of what I spend and mentally check things off when items clear, but haven't formally balanced anything in years.
Things change but how do allow our kids to graduate school and not know about how to handle their finances?
