I don't think it's an issue of "common sense". I think it's more of what's not being taught in the school system. Kids are taught 'just enough' to get by. No emphasis on phonics, nor emphasis on creative writing makes today's youth a lot less prepared.

It's why people get "your" and "you're" or "its" and "it's" all mixed up....heh.

Worst of all: "won" or "one"
