wow
I just asked one of my 9th graders to put his mailing address on an envelope. I had already written his name on it in the right place. He wrote it where the stamp goes...yeah.

Re: wow
Is this the norm for kids these days? I'm scared for the future.
Hmmm
The only thing I can think of is that not too many people send things through the mail anymore - it is all done online. That is the ONLY reasonable excuse I can think of.
Just last week I was mailing out cards and had a full second of hesitation where I had to think through which side of the envelope the stamp went on.
I don't even know what I would expect a typical 9th grader to mail out. Bday cards, etc are usually handled by parents, they don't mail out bills yet that young, any communication with friends is text message or email, probably any long distance family too would be email or phone (grandparents, aunts/uncles, etc.). It's not that surprising to me really.
ETA: But, it's certainly an opportunity for a "teachable moment".
