Part of it is, like hawkfyr said...the kids are being taught by teachers with bad grammar.  Every time I talk to my 10-year-old, I have to correct at least ONE sentence per conversation.  He, as well as my younger sister and brother (taught in the same school system) have the same grammatical idiosyncrasies...and it drives me BONKERS.  I'm so glad that I got through that school system when there were still good teachers.
