OpenStudy (vickyisthesmartone123):

Is it A? I think....

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

Not exactly. There's only one store manager, so that apostrophe is in the correct place.

OpenStudy (vickyisthesmartone123):

Okay..

OpenStudy (vickyisthesmartone123):

What about....hmmmm *THINKING* C or B

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

Neither. Childrens' is actually incorrect because children is already plural, so there's no need to make the apostrophe placement double plural.

OpenStudy (vickyisthesmartone123):

AWWW MAN! :\

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

LOL Sorry. But you understand now right?

OpenStudy (vickyisthesmartone123):

LOL Yeah, but like you know?

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

Yeah, I can feel a little stupid sometimes too. Especially with math homework.

OpenStudy (vickyisthesmartone123):

Yup! O_O Me too, I suck at Geometry.....but then yes, then no. It depends what circumstances I'm in XD

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

Exactly

OpenStudy (vickyisthesmartone123):
