I want to add to this thread that while you teach your children to reason with their minds, you should also teach them to reason with their hearts, which is more difficult. Maybe the latter doesn't have much meaning or significance to you, but I mention it as a Muslim because it is one of those things that is consistently emphasized in the Sufi teachings and in many other traditional beliefs and philosophies as well; the head and the heart have to work in tandem in order to cultivate the intellect. Therefore, in the words of Aristotle, "Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all."
