Oh one other quick rant on all of this. I think the thing that bugs DW and I so much about dwelling on DS's writing is that he is writing right around first grade level. Considering that some things such as proper lettering in lower case is brand new to him as of this summer (we had to help catch him up to speed in preparation), he is doing alright. In fact, since he skipped into first grade, this is actually one area where we are at the correct academic level.
Funny how sometimes we see things differently.
