Like_youknow

For those of you with teenagers at home with whom you have difficulty communicating, this video will be either helpful or at least give you comfort.

It's o.k. to insist that our young people be articulate.

Unfortunately we used to teach students to write the way they speak. That philosophy has resulted in a large segment of the population that is both inarticulate and illiterate. One "you know" at a time, we can make a difference. Go ahead, try it...just insist for one day, for one dinner, or for one account of a fight with a sibling, that a young person form a coherent thought without using the phrase "you know" or preceding every sentence or fragment with "like"...

If we band together we can "like" change the world "you know"...
