How does one avoid getting sucked into conspiracy theories?

Respect for your parents is a wonderful thing, but you are an individual with your own thoughts and have the right to form your own beliefs. I understand the fear of watching your parents fall for these conspiracy theories as I have run into the same problem myself. I presented my parents with articles debunking the conspiracy theories. Also with the way suggested videos are presented on the net, conspiracy theories will be the majority of what shows up on someone's feed if they watch and read a lot of them. To someone who doesn't realize this, it may appear that more people support these theories and since that's all they are reading it becomes more believable. Hope you find a gentle way to let them know what you already know.
