I really have to wonder what is the problem with todays youth. I have so many friends with young children or teens, (and my own included), where i see so many mistakes with spelling. Easy words that i wouldnt think someone could mis-spell.  
 
I know im a bit, i guess picky is the word, i try my best to make sure everything is spelled correctly.  
 
It just makes me wonder if they do it on purpose? or do they honestly not know how to spell?  
oh, and im of the age where we were still taught by phonics.. lol way back in the day. haha
