You're teaching your kids to be very smart and that's great. I do the same thing with our girls. Unfortunately, however, most people just look at what they see on television and take it as absolute just because the television said so. You and I are smart enough to know better and we're teaching our children to do the same, but the majority of our culture doesn't really take the time to think past that. At least we're teaching our children to think for themselves though, which means we're doing our jobs as parents.
