Here are some tips to help parents to teach critical thinking to their kids.

　　Resist putting a television and computer in your children’s room. This allows them to watch without care. It is better for you to know what they’re watching; that way you can discuss the programs.

　　Encourage your children to think about their favorite shows and media personalities. Why do they like them? Do they reflect the values of their family, school, community or church? Speculate about the real lives of some of the celebrities they love. Would they really want to be like Paris Hilton or Jessica Simpson?

　　Ask your children to talk about the kinds of things they like best about the people they know, including their own friends, family members, teachers and coaches. Is it that they’re famous and rich and pretty? Or is it that they’re funny, helpful, caring, friendly and smart?

　　Encourage kids to be skeptical. Get them to ask questions such as “Is the only reason I’m interested in that person on TV is because he is on TV?”

　　Stay current with the programs, music and video games your kids are consuming. It’s the only way you’ll be able to have intelligent and informed discussions with them about the people and images they’re exposed to. It’s the only way you’ll know what they’re thinking, and the only way you can help them think more critically.
