I miss the days when people could actually spell words properly. Now it's poor spelling and acronyms. What are we becoming?

Having a screen name that is grammatically improper while talking of spelling and acronyms and the misuse of the English language.
But really OP, I agree. It is sad.
What are we becoming? Lax in educating our children in proper English.
