I don't think suspensions are the answer either since kids will just play video games at home. But what about in school suspensions? Doing your homework in a broom closet for the entire day without your phone or seeing your friends will quell disruptive behavior quick. It worked at my school doing just that.

These schools do not always have the resources to monitor large numbers of suspended students, and it would also just lead to the exact same problems, unless students don't need to go to the bathroom anymore. They don't have enough rooms to put students on their own, so they have to put them in groups.

Your school was probably very different from mine.
