      Have you met children? Of course they lie, but what can you do? Strip search them? C’mon, anyone tasked with enforcing this is taking on the impossible.

        Have you met children? They don’t lie anywhere near as much as you seem to believe and most are perfectly fine with following new rules. There will always be those who don’t, but that doesn’t mean a ban like this can’t successful. It doesn’t need to have a 100% compliance rate to have a positive affect in the classroom.
