[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's wrong with precocious and correcting other people when you're 9? Obviously, I wouldn't do that now. But when I was that age, I corrected grammar everywhere, both in newspapers and verbally. You know what? When I finished college, my first job was ... drumroll ... editing newspapers. More than 2 decades later my job still revolves around writing and editing. My 9-year-old somehow inherited the correct everything and everyone gene. (I promise, I don't do that now, other than when I'm getting paid to edit something.) I will not be telling him to stop. I see this as a useful life skill. Eventually, he'll learn when to hold his tongue. I certainly did. [/quote] It is only cute to you, everyone else finds it annoying and rude. Real smarts are knowing WHEN to open yor fat trap. U am teaching that to my 9 yr old .[/quote]
