Don't forget he is talking about spelling words for his son.  This
likely means he is in early elementary school (at least I was that
young the last time I had a list of spelling words.   So he likely
won't have to do to much to prevent someone this young from getting
around it.

Heck, if it were my son, I'd be happier if he found a way around it
than if he went and spelled all the words.  I'd still make him learn
his spelling words, but learning to hack is an important skill too :)
