Default replacing old lighting switches

Hello, I am in the process of replacing all the light switches in my home.
Some of the old switches have the 2 wires connected and some have three. The
switches I bought have only the 2 wire connectors for hot and cold wires.
What do i do if the outlet has the 3 wires? Are there switches that have the
ground on them as well, to accomodate 3 wires in the outlet?
thanks
