It's a problem with registry permissions. See

Under my daughters/sons login, when they are typing, an incorrect word is not
underlined. Also, when you go to tools, the spelling and grammer is grayed
out so you cannot check the document.

Under your daughters/sons login, open a Word document where this
problem occurs, press Ctrl+A to select all of the text, click on
Tools | Language | Set Language | <choose your language> |
uncheck the "Detect language automatically" and "Do not check
spelling or grammar" boxes | Default | OK, and press F7 to rerun
spellcheck. If you are prompted to save changes to your
Normal.dot global template, say yes.
