You're right. Why use proper forms of communication, when you are trying to communicate? Why try and convince people you are able to mold young minds, and help advance them in life, with the correct words that should be taught to them? So often teachers are asked by students why they have to do algebra, homework, English assignments. It's so that they develop critical thinking, problem solving, and communication skills. I often hear/read that it doesn't matter what words are used, because it's a forum, twitter, facebook, text, conversation between friends, etc., and then when I get resumes from these people, they are still written in the same crappy style. It's because they never get out of it. I don't see how you'd think people wouldn't jump at a chance to educate you, when you are preaching about your educating of others.
