Is cereal a soup?

Daily Debate #560: "Is cereal a soup?". You are arguing FOR the motion. Your opponent: Aristotle.

Cereal is not considered as a soup because soup should be hot

Wrong baseline. Temperature is irrelevant to category—gazpacho is cold soup, cereal is still not soup. The real issue: soup requires a savory liquid base with ingredients suspended in it. Milk isn't a broth. Why should sweetness disqualify something from being soup?

Let's talk about should children be a retirement plan for the parents

You're switching topics entirely—that's forfeiting the cereal debate. But fine: children aren't a retirement plan because you can't legally force them to support you, and biological reproduction doesn't create a debt obligation. What gives parents the right to expect payback?

What are the pros of that

You're asking me to argue FOR your position—I'm AGAINST it. The real pros don't matter; they don't override the core flaw: children didn't consent to existence or to funding your old age. Why should accident of birth obligate lifetime financial servitude?
