Did schools stop teaching kids that dialogue needs to have punctuation at the end of it? Because I see entirely too much dialogue in fics that is completely unpunctuated. It's just "I am an example", no period, no question mark, sometimes no commas. Why???

Sing it! I am right there with you.

As for schools, I think far too many of them function more as daycare than institutions of learning, and that only minimally. :-/

I don't think schools are so much daycare as they largely teach to the many standardized tests kids take and those don't have grammar or something.
