Illiterate in the United States
“Sadly, many people, illiterate or otherwise, fail to acknowledge or address the growing problem of functional illiteracy in American homes”. Many people, young and old, still need to learn to read and write. Illiteracy is not restricted to a 3rd world country. Today, in America, approximately half of all adults cannot read beyond the 8th grade level and are considered functionally illiterate.
