The findings come from the Pew Research Center, which surveyed 5,110 US adults. The results show that 68% of respondents supported a ban on middle and high school students using phones in the classroom, while 24% opposed the idea and 8% were unsure.

    As a former educator, I can say good luck enforcing anti-phone rules whether you want to or not.

    I wasn’t a cop and I didn’t want to be one. I had no license (nor did I seek one) to forcibly seize and confiscate phones. Sure, some brainrot addicts would waste away on the damn things but apart from verbal attempts to get their dwindling attention, that was the beginning and the end of my authority there if I wanted to keep my job.
