I know how to cue 'at' someone- it's very easy to learn, but it takes quite a while to make the handshapes match up to anything resembling normal speaking speeds.
I think it's a viable option in terms of aiding speech-reading, but I also believe that sign should be any child's first and primary language.
Cued speech still assumes pretty good speech-reading skills, which takes time to develop- time that could be devoted to childhood.
That said, loml has more or less made me hate cueing in general, so I'm biased.
