Parenting is a big responsibility. On Twitter, @SuzyGlaskie wonders:
Glaring missing apostrophe on this cute Zara top for my daughter. Do I let her wear it or return it in disgust?I say Suzy should return the shirt or get a Sharpie and fix it with some skillful editing. She wouldn't want her little chick to grow up like Paris Hilton.
Where does Zara go wrong? It omits the apostrophe in a contraction.
Quick rules:
- In a contraction, an apostrophe replaces one or more missing letters. You + are = You're. Can + not = Can't. And so on.
Correction:
- I'm ready

The child wearing this has a cell phone and ready to receive IMs (Instant Messages). Looks fine to me. (Okay, I'm kidding, sorry)
