Video Games Literacy

Why can’t kids spell anymore?

What is with you people? The more questions I read, the more ridiculous the spelling and grammar mistakes get.

I can understand that some people are struggling with English as their second language, but that can’t be the problem with everyone.

Do our schools no longer teach the value of the English language? Is texting becoming a problem for the literacy of our children? Are video games and movies replacing reading to the detriment of our society?

As far as I’m concerned, all of the above are true, but I’d like to know what others have to say.

At what fictitious time in the past do you believe that things were different?
