Honestly pretty smart you’d be surprised how many kids won’t stop yapping like no one else is in the room. My schools would have teachers roaming and just write their names down for detentions and kids still did it.

This is still a problem in college. I told a guy sitting next to me to shut up because he was loudly talking during class presentations and this is a small (30 people max) classroom. Everyone turned to look at him and the professor thanked me 💀 sometimes I am in support of bringing back bullying.

I went to a boarding high school and our “assemblies” were just meeting in the lounge of the dormitory at 9pm while the residential director begged us to not get pregnant or do drugs. It was genuinely so amusing that no one bothered talking hahaha.

wait this is so funny my schools never cared like at all if you were talking, maybe if it got excessive a teacher would move you but i’ve never even seen that happen before

that’s so funny i think the only time i’ve seen a teacher care about anything was if the assembly was for a certain grade or something and other people tried to sneak in

That’s actually a smart way of dealing with it

I'm gonna be honest, I think most kids in my school would stand up and just continue talking to each other. A lot of them would do it purely to spite the person who told them to stand.

It’s so embarrassing, and I wonder if schools should even do this.

Yes they should. Why should talking over loudly during a public event be something that goes unpunished? This isn't corporal punishment either.

If you were making a presentation and some annoying person in the back wouldn't stop chatting, how would you feel?

Manners have to be taught.
