I'm with you - my stepdaughter's in the same range with texts, as is her 20 year old brother. I either spell and punctuate reasonably correctly, or let voice recognition handle it.

The multi-tasking is impressive - but I just wish she would avoid some of the affectations in bad spelling. (I can somewhat understand the abbreviations though I don't like many of them - but things like "boi" for boy make me want to gag.) That and her habit of wanting to text rather than call when I've just told her I'm coming to pick her up. I've got a bluetooth, I can take her call; but her texts are going to have to wait until I stop driving.
