I find soooo many serious problems pertaining to the use of the Eng./Amer. Language that I now doubt if AMERIC

I seriously doubt if AMERICA — USA, HAS any schools & IF SO, DO THEY DO a n y EDUACTING AT ALL ???????????????????????????????????????

These kids can’t: SPELL, USE PROPER GRAMMAR, PROPER SENTENCE STRUCTURE, or EVEN MAKE ANY SENSE 1/2 THE TIME!!! They say: ‘spade’ when they mean ‘spayed’, they always say ‘there’ when they mean ‘they’re (they are), or ‘their’ — they don’t know ‘their’ means belonging to someone else !!! I could mention a dozen or two more (including the 3-2s: to,too,& two!), but I’m sure anyone 45 and up has seen it & had their blood boil !They also say, “I seen it.”, instead of, “I saw it.”–and on and on ! What can we do? Stop paying ALL SCHOOL TAXES ubtil they shape up or pull all our kids out & find home schoolers !!! Our grandparents studied in 1-room classrooms and went on to Harvard & Yale & Cambridge and became the leaders of the free-world! These”kids” aren’t going to B able to support themselves, let alone their kids or elders! What can we do???

Parents can be engaged in what their kids are doing?! Maybe its not just the school system? It is quite annoying when you see plz in stead of please. People need to pay attention to the children in schools and if they are struggling they need to help them. Miss-education is a bad disease that is commandeering our young people. And I agree with you and I think teachers should care for the children and not their paychecks.

Do you understand how much the Eng/Amer language changes? During my schooling years I was taught a set of rules, but when I went to college at age 33 I found out that many of those rules had changed. How do people keep up with that? Sure, we could keep current but how many other things are there to keep current on, to many to count.

I do home school my kids but I don’t discount the ps system either. (Oh my! I should have typed out public school for your, no abbreviations in typed language.) Pay taxes, support your teachers, their pay check is not all that! Plus, they spend their own money on class room supplies.

Face it, the world changes everyday, from yours to now. All I can say is deal with it. These kids today are smarter than you give them credit for, it’s amazing what a little encouragement will do instead of criticism.

i detect this disgustingly actual. I controlled you bought an education. i’m able to spell, and understand distinctive homonyms (or homophones in case you desire.) I easily have heard “I seen it” earlier, however the worst grow to be when I heard somebody say “I seed it.” we’ve permit infants get out of control with this “comfortable parenting” which many times will become NO parenting. the 1st step earlier college even starts is getting mom and dad in touch with their infants. whilst they do attain college age, we won’t be able to enable the rampant rule-breaking that is going directly to proceed. self-discipline is fundamental. college is transforming into a place the place infants bypass away their mom and dad and torture instructors. that is extra like a zoo with the animals free of their cages. —- i’m 23 years old, no longer 40 5 or older as you have reported. Please don’t be so rapid to decide each guy or woman. that is termed ageism and is a bad habit.
