RE: Helping Children Develop Critical Thinking
I agree with your points. Critical thinking is crucial for them to 'survive'. You have some good tips how to develop them and you made me laugh with your son asking when will you die :)
I think very often we try to avoid such questions but saying something totally silly or changing the topic hoping that they will get distracted but this is so unfair towards them. We should respect their personality and treat them with dignity. Everything can be answered in a a truthful way that would not hurt the child.
Thank you for sharing!
Thank you @delishtreats for your point of view. That's true we handle them with care and respect. Some questions may not have a answer but we need to give them some logic behind it.
