Texting

I can see where some people may think that texting can make you a bad writer. Since texting is an every day thing for mostly everyone these days, abbreviations and the lack of commas is common in people's way of texting. The way you are taught how to write as a child greatly effects how they write today. For example, in grade school I had a special section on writing and up through middle school and high school, I continued to learn how to write correctly. I text almost nonstop and I don't use silly abbreviations when I turn in a paper. It is shown that with the use of abbreviations, people know what certain abbreviations mean and are using them in a way that makes sense to the person they are sending it to. So, really using abbreviations while texting isn't all that bad because they are correlating and understanding what they mean and how they work in a sentence.
