casualobserver, there are many critics of inventive spelling. My daughter
was taught that way and had a lot of trouble but she eventually learned.  However, she is very smart!

But first they have to teach the kids how to read, and spell not to mention proper grammer. When my son was in elementary school here in Michigan they tried to teach him to spell like the word sounds, when I questioned the school about this teaching technique they told me it was the way it was done and I couldn't do anything about it. Now he's 21 years old, in college and can't spell worth a lick.
