That is so cool that your "kid" is a debate beast. Debating is not even being taught properly anymore.

My older brother was a champion high school debater and he would piss me off to the point of getting enraged.
Lucky, to have him as an older brother. He taught me to keep emotions in check and work on winning the argument, rather than defaulting to anger while losing.
Masterful debate is such a beautiful thing.
Was thinking of Christopher Hitchens the other day. Hated his ideological persuasion, but damn, his Rhetoric was a thing of beauty.
Noone exists on the left today of comparable ability.
Although, if alive today?
He would probably be more aligned to right of center traditional values as he smoked a cigarette, drank a whiskey and chatted with the likes of Georgetown Tucker.
