Having good grammar isn't only important in writing or back in school. It is an important tool to have to ensure you are able to communicate your thoughts, opinions, and more in an efficient and effective manner. We lose so much time on avoidable miscommunication and grammar is there to help us along that way.
Unfortunately for many people, they stop learning and practicing good grammar once they leave school. They may not even care to use proper grammar in their day-to-day lives and this leads to numerous bad habits and poor communication.
