Lying is morally wrong but it is also quite normal. Everyone does it. In fact, one researcher said  [1] that lying is an unavoidable part of human nature. How many times have your loved ones asked if you were ok and you said that you were, when in fact you were not? Or have you ever been running late and told your friend that you would be there in five minutes when you knew fully well that it would take at least ten? And what about when toddlers say that they haven’t eaten any chocolates despite having their face smeared with it?

Because of this, simply being able to tell exactly what is going on can be difficult. To be able to think critically is now a very important skill. Though what exactly is critical thinking?
