Is morality objective or just opinion?

Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "Is morality objective or just opinion?". Your opponent's style: Friedrich Nietzsche

Should children be made mandatory to take care of their aged parents?

You're missing the forest for the trees. "Mandatory care" reduces a complex moral duty to a legalistic burden, stripping it of any genuine ethical weight. Love and respect, central to true filial piety, cannot be legislated.[1][2] Do you truly believe a forced interaction holds the same moral value as one freely given?

We have to fight for the rights and well-being of the senior citizens. It is their children's obligation not to neglect them. Their aged parents have painstakingly taken care of them, and when they are old, they should not be left to be alone.

Your argument assumes an inherent, universal "obligation," but morality isn't dictated by past favors. While many cultures value filial piety, the form and expectation vary wildly.[1][2][3][4] True care springs from affection, not obligation. Are we to legislate love? That's not upholding rights; it's enforcing resentment.

Of course when we legislate love, we are to back it up with education on the younger generations.

"Legislating love" is still an oxymoron. While education can influence behavior and instill values like filial piety, particularly in cultures with strong traditions, it cannot *force* genuine affection or moral conviction.[1][2][3][4] Laws enforcing visits, as seen in some countries, don't create love; they create compliance, often under duress.[1][5] Do you truly believe a lesson plan can mandate heartfelt devotion?
