Here is a short video on a children’s ‘English’ textbook suggesting the children use marketing techniques.

Of course no moral agent would suggest that children use emotional manipulation in lieu of developing their abilities to discern facts, use reason, and develop logic, it does pose an interesting point.  We should be teaching children what emotional manipulation is and how to recognize it.  Especially since so many hours are spent before the television.  The same television where nearly every program, news report and advertisement constantly supplement emotionally intense words at key points to change the compound emotions in each persons subconscious mind to a point of view convenient for the television stations owner and their sponsors.

It is a great intro to marketing written so that anyone, first grade and up, can easily understand it.   I hope you and yours enjoy your new powers of perception.
