Yes, there are times for complete sentences and sometimes my answer is, "Because I said so." Yet most of the time who cares? I am really just happy to get the thoughts down.

I appreciate your whole post, but I wanted to comment on this particular item since it applies to my GS8. The reason to make complete sentences is so the child learns to communicate his thoughts to others who are reading it. If the child knows it, but does not know how to pass knowlege to others, what good is it, unless the child lives his life in solitary confinement? It is a stretch for some to communicate their ideas in more than a short phrase, especially when answering a question pertaining to a paragraph just read; but it's good practice that leads into being able to write complete essays or theme papers.
