Teach Kids to Ask Meaningful Questions, Recognize Bias, and Stand Up for Themselves
How can adults help young people make sound decisions? Empower Your Children explores the questions and habits that help readers assess information and recognise unreliable claims.
Thomas Rowley looks at the life skills that education can overlook and offers an action plan for adults who want to help. The emphasis is on asking useful questions, checking sources, and communicating calmly across different perspectives.
