So is this correct?

When you're using it as possessive it's lower case.
When you're using it to personally address someone it's capital.
This goes for mom/dad/uncle/aunt/cousin/etc.

You're kidding me, right? You have no right to bash on his capitalization when your spelling is that of a 3rd grader.
Even if you were just typing fast, he could've been doing the exact same thing.
