My daughter’s grade school did alot of practice mailing. They sent letters to pen pals at other schools. Wrote letters to the mayor thanking her for coming to class etc…Plus she went to overnight camp for 7 years and sent dozens of letters home. She definitely knew how to address and stamp a letter.
But what has surprised me is that she has not sent one piece of stamped mail since she got to college. Not one. She pays all bills online, including rent. She sends e-mails on a regular basis of course and sends things back from Zappos and Nordstrom (UPS) but stamped mail. Nope. Never.
