Homework should be banned.

Everyone will vote Con.

Forfeiting 2/3 of debate is always a loss, even if he posts an argument in the last round, it doesnt count at this point.

Me too i wanted to challenge myself but pls vote con

I expected Pro to win this, but Pro forfeited.

homework should be banned I agree

I guess I could say that one of my goals is to abolish homework, but its not really high in priority, as I am not in school anymore and I avoided lots of homework I was given during that time anyway. I could even say its low in priority, but its gonna get achieved anyway thanks to AI, so I dont need to invest any more effort to achieve the goal of abolishing homework.

My argumentation doesn't aim at making homework eternal, it is based on the idea that at this given time it is preferable that it remains established. How is anyone supposed to know and surely dictate whether it's a good idea to have it 50 years later. For this specific idea, i intend to advocate for its value and show that if implemented in more modern ways, the majority would be happy. As for attacking, i am not going to because this is a rather vulgar way to address strikers in any context. Again, i will try through the power of words and persuasion to deter most people from ever needing to go on strikes. If these people choose to ignore me and make public displays with no basis whatsoever, there's nothing to be done about it from my behalf, i do not constitute the government.

Well, fine, but I wasnt asking for your arguments in favor of homework, but which actions will you take to make sure homework exists forever. Will you start "We love homework" group to spread awareness about homework in your society? Will you track down and verbally attack those who oppose homework any time they make a public display?

(They are kinda misleading but not entirely and as you said it wouldn't be that wise to disperse my arguments like that)

"My goal is that homework exists"

Then you probably shouldnt give arguments in favor of your enemy's goal of abolishing homework. Unless they are misleading arguments, of course, in that case, good work. Now, what other actions will you take to make sure homework exists forever?

My goal is that homework exists nothing else, evident by my postion. Yet you asked a question regarding the existence of this debate and since i created it, it was my obligation to start answering and mention some downsides to my position( i was going to dispute them in my argumentation nonetheless). So, unless there's a question strictly regarding con, i figure we should stop and avoid further confusing people about my position

"Your making the concept of skipping homework sound very serious, like a war tactic which requires sacrifices and so on. "

I understand, you want it so that there are no sacrifices which have to be made. You want to not do homework and not suffer any punishment for it. But can you achieve that? Can you convince your school to abolish homework, or at least all of your teachers? Can you convince your country? What sacrifices are you willing to make to abolish homework on a nation scale? Are you going to do peaceful protests? Or is your goal just to argue about it until you convince enough people? Whatever your plan is, you must have clear path towards goal. Now, if you want to just talk about it and complain, sure, I guess I can complain too. "Oh homework, all those hours of childhood I will never get back. Lets cry."

I am not here to ban hw, i am here to argue that it should exist. Yet, this fellow debater asked questions that could only be answered if i am pretending to be pro. I am simply jotting down thoughts through my personal experience that have nothing to do with neither my argumentation nor my position

I want you to realise that i am con and i am simply voicing the requests of a certain community when it comes to this debate. Your making the concept of skipping homework sound very serious, like a war tactic which requires sacrifices and so on. War is similar to homework only in the sense that it is imposed upon a certain group of people and it leads to people taking risks in order to avoid their effects . These risks wouldn't exist if governments banned homework meaning that students wouldn't have to for example fake sick, forge signatures in letters supposedly written by their parents enabling them to not do homework. These are all risks not actions that have a slight possibility of working but if they don't they lead to more significant consequences than the ones a student would endure should they just choose to not do homework in the first place. Finally, imagine a child in elementary or middle school that just doesn't feel like doing homework. This child is a sensitive human beings and is committing the most minor offence possible. Should he/she have to go through disappointing his parents, potentially getting suspended by the school or spanked by parents just because he skipped homework? No, and that's why he/she supports that homework shouldn't exist. Obviously, this is a very crude argument on which you can't base any decisionmaking, yet you can see one side of the argument on which we have been arguing about for the past one and a half hour.

If you want to ban HW, then you would take the pro side of this debate, not the con side.

You can also do your homework very poorly. For example, if you have to write an essay, just write 4 sentences that you get from asking AI.

"your mom will spank you or they can give you some form of detention"

Yeah, those are sacrifices necessary to skip homework. So if you really want to skip homework, then you will skip it even if you get spanked or get detention. I suggest you make a detailed plan about skipping homework which enables you to achieve the goal of skipping homework in most acceptable way for you possible. Are you familiar with the concept of systematic way of doing something? To put it simply, you have a goal, a path to goal and actions necessary to achieve goal. Now just think about as many actions as possible which would save you from homework, such as getting intentionally sick or overcoming your fear of punishment. If you try hard enough, you might never have to do homework again, since persistence is important.

Yea i get your point but most people do care about their grades and believe that homework should not be taken into account and should not exist because they dont want bad grades. These people don't neglect homework because they dont care about their grades but because they think it's mainly a waste of time. As for the principals thing, oviously they don't spank you but the principal's main role is to punish students, lets not bullshit so if u are taken to the principal they can call your mom and then your mom will spank you or they can give you some form of detention which students also try to avoid.

"forgetting homework drops ur grades down"

So your solution is simple. Stop caring about your grades, and then you will be able not to do your homework easily. I had really bad grades in high school. Like, I didnt even study, let alone do homework.

"in more strict ones they take u to principals"

Well, unless you are being spanked there, I dont see how it hurts you. But if you want to skip homework, you obviously must be willing to make sacrifices.

In some countries, forgetting homework drops ur grades down and in more strict ones they take u to principals so u currently have the choice not to but pro is supposed to argue that not doing homework is perfectly fine and should be allowed

Like, just say you forgot to do your homework.

You can just not do homework.
