Introduction to skepticism.

Posted by kristentabor on March 12, 2010

My 9 year old daughter was looking up something about Littlest Pet Shop toys online last night.  Then she came to me and the following conversation ensued:

“Hey Mom, I was at the Littlest Pet Shop site and this thing came up that said the one millionth visitor had won a Wal-Mart gift card. Do you want me to click it?”

No, sweetie. They lie. Never, ever click those.

“They lie?”

Yep.  Especially if it’s flashing.
.
“Okay. Never click those because they lie.”

I am so glad my child is skeptical of advertising.
