Lightbulb ¡Qué mal se escribe!

Ok, I'm a translator and we tend to be a bit obsessive, don't we??? Haha. But I've been more and more upset and worried about how poorly people write in Spanish -and I mean here, in Argentina (in newspapers, for example)... Nobody seems to care any more, as if it is a nuisance, just a detail -or worse: As if those of us who do care are old-fashioned, too fussy, weird...

Have you noticed this fact too? Does anybody else care or is it just me? My point is: How are we going to be able to learn another language if we can't write ours correctly? How will children learn?

Does this happen in other Spanish-speaking countries? (I don't think this happens with other languages -in other cultures.)

Does anybody have any contribution to this thought? Any hope? Anything to share?
