Should Descender letters (g j p q y) be joined or not

I have been taught to join all my letters, including descenders but the teacher's remark on my DD's school work book said 'We do not join descenders'. I don't understand why and why not.

I was taught not to join the letter P....interestingly the same teacher taught my daughter 20 years later and told her to join her P and all descender letters. I hate seeing a joined up P, but let dd get on with it.
