17 year old DS, reviewing for his ACT, told me today he just learned this week the difference between "its" and "it ' s".
He's been a bookworm since he was 6! He has a 3.95 cumulative gpa, 4.7 weighted!
How did he get this far not knowing this, and what other obvious thing does he not know?

Eh - I didn't learn that till I went to college and it was an Ivy League school. Don't fret - he will be fine.

Last night I found my 15 yr old DS had opened the back of his hard drive for his table top computer, BEFORE turning it off. I said to turn it off, immediately unless he wanted burned stumps instead of hands.

I haven’t read all the posts, but I don’t consider it’s vs. its a kind-blowing my stupid, OP. I’d hate to have you for a parent.
