Jake, although the wisdom donations by well meaning folks here is correct, and its intention is to HELP you be a bigger success than the rest, (Could also be normal nit picking if they are of old school German Heritage) I do think they have forgotten what its like to be 16.
Lets see if I can recall what I though about at 16:
- Thinking about girls
- Thinking about social groups and peers
- Thinking about friends
- Thinking about food
- Raging hormones
- Dreaming of girls
- Chores
- Thinking about Money
- Cars, (The Porsche)
- Girls
- Sports
- Thinking about the dance
- Homework
- Girls
...
I don't ever recall worrying about spelling even though my grades reflected my lack of skill with it on occasion.
Jake has another 5 years of schooling ahead if he goes to college (Of course he will) to sort out his future career and spelling issues.
I'd cut him some slack so that he doesn't come back at us and start asking why we are always obsessing over Porsches and spelling but NOT girls.
