Okay Janeth...
I downloaded this keyboard and could not find a way to turn it off, I think it is how the keyboard functions.
Have you thought about downloading Swiftkey. It honestly is so much better and is a lot quicker on response time. I think you will find it a better option than your current keyboard.
Please give it a try for me, if you still prefer Go Keyboard, I can keep digging.

You sure it's the GO keyboard? It's one of the one's that I use and I have NEVER seen it do that. Here is the "real" Go keyboard, lol.

The other thing is that it could be THEME specific, as there are TONS of themes you can download for the GO keyboard and maybe the highlighting is a feature of the specific theme you are using. If you do indeed have the GO keyboard, try changing themes and see what happens. As I said, I have the GO keyboard installed on several of my devices and I've never seen it do that!

Go to your Go Keyboard settings. You can remove the keystroke highlights there. SETTINGS > MANAGE APPS > GO KEYBOARD

As long as we are on the subject Nicole, do you know how to have the space bar bring up more suggestions instead of the punctuations? I would swear that I changed it the first time I used the GO keyboard about a year ago, and now I've installed it again and for the life of me I can't remember how to do it?????????
