1.) Invest in a quality grammar and spell check, such as the one in Microsoft Word..

2.) If you solder the wires on backwards, the motor will run in reverse. If you are SURE the wires are on correctly, then it sounds like your endbell is turned 180 degrees.. Rotate it, solder the wires on properly, and you should be good to go..

This is true, but only on speed controls that are capable of reverse. If it were switched, the motor would only move when he tried to go in reverse. By going forward, he would just be applying the brakes..

At least one new kid a week has the switch problem. New kid, rtr kit parents bought earlier that day, and who reads instructions? It's kinda funny, but everyone has to learn somewhere.
