    Another great debate agsr. I think that Dads are the oldest as well as bringing home the pay check unlike most kids. That's why in my opinion dads are in charge. Also, not a great claim by the WSJ making a horrible argument.

    PS I love the new points and level icons next to the profile for debaters! Great new feature. I checked with Debate.org and they don't seem to have that and a lot of other stuff debateIsland.com has unlike many other Debate/forum website. No wonder it is probably the best debate website on the web! I will be sure to like this debate and many other as well as share them. What's interesting is that I found it through an organic search, but it's ranking is low. Very surprising, considering that I would put it at number 1. Keep up the great work DebateIsland.com.
  • I think that kids may be partially taking over the household as the article states. In my opinion, the user akeoz_1039 was wrong with his debate, but right about DebateIsland.com being the best debate website everrrrrrrrr!! Debate.org and others can't even compete with them when their rank goes up!!!!!!!
  • Dads are always the boss.
  • It seems to be tied in the polls, I will go with dads. They should attempt to maintain their power and role.
  • Dads will always be dads.

    It is encouraging that 67% disagree with the economists who conducted the survey. Dads are still worth something.
