So let me get this straight

Now I feel sorry for my grade school teacher who made us recite: "Aint" aint a word, "Aint" aint in the dictionary, and "Aint" aint gonna be used in this classroom!

At least he was teaching you proper usage

If you think that the deterioration of spelling and grammar is restricted to the English (or American English) language, think again. You would not believe the atrocities that can be read in German and French forums.

I think it has much to do with the continuous and sustained deliberate dismantling of the Western culture in favour of this political correctness nonsense. After I found out what absolute rubbish they teach at schools nowadays, courtesy of those stupid UNO and UNESCO bureaucrats, I decided to have my children home schooled.

I started school in 1969 and was thus probably among the first victims of these newfangled soviet pedagogic brainwashing methods which only became more advanced the past 40 odd years and by now have completely substituted the academic education of yore.

What the so-called education system hands you back when you expose your children to it is downright frightening. A bunch of unfolded self-found morons without manners who can't spell or count.
