Hey guys, I know this isn't the most exciting topic, but I was wondering if you could help me out. In the sentance below, is it correct grammer to use the apostophe in it's, or is it correct to leave it out in this instance.
Word is correcting me, but I was curious if I was wrong or not. I mean, the obstacles are technically the "property" of the rational choice theory. On various occasions, combined rational thinkers use social capital to achieve great results, however rational choice is not without it’s obstacles. Thanks guys and girls. -------------------- [img]http://photos-081.facebook.com/n6/081/n15913038_30266081_3342.jpg[/img]

I am not good at sentences, but "grammar" is spelled wrong. You are supposed to leave out the " ' " because that is saying "it is." It looks like it is showing a type of possession so the apostrophe is not needed.

The apostrophy (') is like saying "It is" so I'm not sure which one you wrote or which one is the "correct" option. Hope that helps.
