I have to correct my daughter all the time on that and on using 'Me and Kayla' instead of "Kayla and I." That REALLY drives me nuts. I've been correcting her since she was 3. It really bugs me when adults say it but I refrain from correcting anyone except for my daughter and her friends. I correct them all the time :o)
