DON’T?? Ok I’ve ignored it for days.... it is DOESN’T not DON’T!! Please, since you are such a *high powered attorney* (LMAO) I should not have to tell you that. I really hate grammar whores but in your case, I will make an exception since you are an Curious George as* kisser and batsh*t crazy.

Doesn’t or Don’t?

Doesn’t, does not, or does is used with the third person singular—words like he, she, and it.

Don’t, do not, or do is used for other subjects.

Incorrect: It don’t matter anymore.

Correct: It doesn’t matter anymore.

Incorrect: Grandfather don’t see too well.

Correct: Grandfather doesn’t see too well.

Correct: His glasses don’t help him much.

Play here, maybe you will then get it.
