Have adults disapeared From America...

Thanks.Concerning Round 1You stated "While a lengthy dissertation could be developed delving into all the different subtle nuances that could be inferred by the subject, 'Have adults disappeared From America...' The intent of the writer of the debate is quite evident by the further development of the post."There is a problem. Your statement in round 1 was especially vague. Even after analyzing your statement in Round 1 for Round 3, it becomes even more vague on two levels A) You seem to have argued or suggested that the supposed disappearance of adults is due to the teaching of relativism to children, yet you neglected to objectively relate the teaching of relativism with the disappearance of adults (you merely posed it as a suggestion anyway, along with your other suggestions). You also failed to present an objective standard for adulthood that requires adults to adhere to a standard of objectivism in order to be adequately defined as adults. You failed to define what an adult is, so I went by the definition found. B) Additionally, you failed to define the scope of your statement, leaving me to assume that you were arguing (or suggesting) that relativity universally deprived kids in America the opportunity to develop into adults. As such, I negated the following resolution implied: Relativism (and the other proposed implications or suggestions in round 1) denied children the opportunity to develop into adults, allowing for the disappearance of adults from America, proving that adults still reside in America. Also, the ambiguity of your argument required that every adult in America must be and act as a child (or is expected to act as a child) in order for your resolution to be true. If one adult in America acts as an adult or if it is expected that adults acts as adults, whatever the standard of adulthood may be (again this was never defined in Round 1), then the resolution is negated. As such, the resolution "Relativism (and the other proposed implications or suggestions in round 1) denied children the opportunity to develop into adults, allowing for the disappearance of adults from America" stands negated as of Round 1 per the four cases I presented.Concerning Round 2Rather than using round 2 to refute my argument in Round 1, you effectively conceded on my four cases in round 1 and attempted to clarify that you meant to argue that "people today don't behave as would be expected from adults." However, as I stated in Round 2, just as in Round 1, you failed to provide a standard for adulthood; you failed to define what an adult is and you failed to define the scope of your statement. As such, I could only refute what was presented, asserting that children are not expected to take up the obligations of an adult as presented in Round 2.The modified resolution People today don't behave as would be expected from adults stands negated as of Round 2 per the arguments I presented.Concerning Round 3Rather than using Round 3 to refute my arguments in (either) Rounds 1 and 2, you effectively conceded on my argument in Round 2 and provided definitions as follows (all of which should have been made in Round 1):Child (chīld), n. 1. A person between birth and puberty. 2. An unborn infant; a fetus. 3. An infant; a baby. 4. One who is childish or immature. 5. A son or daughter; an offspring.You later indicated that the debate is focused on definition 4, "one who is childish or immature," stating (or suggesting) that those who reached the age in which one is legally considered an adult still behave as a child might behave. Still, that leaves ambiguity; you never provided a set of standards one must go by in order to be considered an adult for the purposes of this debate, and you never defined the scope of the debate (whether national or local to any degree). Therefore, my statement in Round 2 still negates your intended resolution, which I will reiterate: Are children in America expected to tend to the biological needs of adults? Are children in America expected to provide a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment that allows adults to experience healthy growth? Are children in America expected to protect adults? Are children in America expected to teach adults and to see to their academic needs? Are children in America expected to provide direction, guidance, direction, and help for adults? Are children in America expected to support and motivate adults? Are children in America expected to teach adults to acquire emotional wellbeing? Are children in America expected to discipline adults (groundings, suspension of privileges, mild corporal punishment, etc.)? The answer, of course, is no.ConclusionAll arguments in Rounds 1 and 2 are extended and stand uncontested as of Round 3. Children are not expected to behave like adults and adults are expected to fulfill the obligations of an adult as cited in Round 2. Adults still make up the bulk of the American population. The resolution stands negated.Final tipsEstablish definitions, terms, rules, and conditions in Round 1. Back up your arguments with sources. Mitigate ambiguity. Thanks for the debate!
