Students must put them in a locker or sealed pouch at the start of the day.

    If wheels could brainwash a kid, completely distract them, and make them throw a tantrum when you take it away then we might have to worry about them.

      Literally anything can distract kids and make them throw a tantrum when you take it away. Have you ever met a child?

        You’re being purposely obtuse.

          Yeah you’re right. Young children are renowned for their vast attention spans, or at least they used to be before cell phones were invented. Nobody ever passed notes, made paper airplanes, graffitied on their desks, or drew pictures in class prior to 2006.

            I’m a grown ass man and I can barely get off the phone. The kids don’t stand a chance brother.
