[quote]About a fifth of the boys admitted that they "would be embarrassed" if their friends saw them write. Only one in eight of the girls girls said the same. Nearly one in three of the boys said there was no point in learning spelling and grammar in the age of the spellchecker, compared with about a fifth of girls. Just under 15% of both sexes said they wrote some of their school work in mobile phone "txt-speak".

"It feels like chiselling rock with a spoon," he said.

Do you hate writing?
