txtn the gr8 db8

This article was about a debate from David Crystal who supposely thinks how texting has changed the language of our generation. He thinks that txtn is the reason for the cause of dyslexia, poor spelling and makes people lazy. In my opinion people who have dyslexia are born with it can't get it from texting if that is the way they came out. It is just something that people started doing. I think it is good that we text because it is writing everyday just talking about our thoughts to someone else it's letting us express how we feel and getting everything out. When we spell were using abbreviations but that doesn't mean we don't know how to spell some of us are the best writers and just happen to like texting. It doesn't make everyone lazy either that is just the way our generation likes to communicate. I think the more we text the better we get at writing. I don't think this changes our literacy skills there is people who are illiterate and the only way they know how to write is by texting. That is probably why it's called the gr8 db8 because it goes both ways.
