I tried, I changed, but still am getting divorced!

Ugh! I just looked up this cool park that lets you ride trains for free on Sundays. It said "Ride free on Sunday's."
Lately I am seeing so many cases of improper use of 's! I am NOT an expert on grammar but my 6th grade teacher, Mr. Gardner, taught us how to use 's vs s! THANK YOU, Mr. Gardner with a loud voice who let us watch "Space Balls" and "The Outsiders" (after we read the book. I don't know why we got to watch "Space Balls!)

here's a quick recap on the proper use of " 's."

*'s can be used to show possession:

It was the boy's dog.
I liked Jan's dress.


*It can be used as a contraction to replace "is"

The restaurant's closed. (The restaurant is closed.)
It's raining outside! (It is raining outside!)


IT IS NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER USED TO SHOW "MORE THAN ONE" (plural)!!!
JUST PLAIN OLD 's' is used in that case.

We are closed on Sundays.
The kids are running.


*when you want to show that something belongs to a plural, you put the ' after the s:

"It is the boys' bathroom."
