Your dad obviously doesn't know his Order of Operations. I might have to contact the school he teaches at and have them revoke his teaching degree.

Isn't there an understanding that any number by itself is to the the 1st power?

Even if you were in mod18, the convention is to simplify it down to a positive number (so in this case 6-6x6=6 would be the answer).
