My personal barricade in this is teaching my children when to use 'more' and when to use 'fewer'. I may be overdoing it a bit though, my son corrected his grandmother the other day. "No, Grandmommy, it's fewer noodles, not less noodles! You can count noodles." I'm not sure what I'll do if he starts correcting the grammar of complete strangers...
