I agree. Those who read a lot, especially when young and learning, learn the proper usage and spelling of words. They may not pronounce the words properly until they hear them spoken, but they still learn the words.
Now with texting the way most young people communicate, misspelling and no capitalization is just ignored. No big deal if texting with friends, but the business world will not accept it.
