As we begin a new school year, today’s episode dives into how to raise kids to be thoughtful consumers of news and information and ask the right questions. 

Mosheh talks to Julie Bogart, the author of a new book, Raising Critical Thinkers: A Parent’s Guide To Growing Wise Kids In The Digital Age. Mosheh was recently a guest on her Brave Writer podcast for a 2-part conversation. Part 1 and Part 2. The conversation was so good, the conversation now continues on the Mo News Podcast. Bogart is the creator of the award-winning Brave Writer education program, and the founder of the Brave Learner Home, which supports homeschool parents.

Today’s conversation explores a wide range of topics, including, what is working and what isn’t in American schools, the history of education going back centuries, Julie’s lessons from homeschooling her five children, and the importance of encouraging disagreement in family conversations and not always giving kids solutions.
