Like teens and pre teens get away with a lot more than adults and kids at that age know what they are doing. That's why the problem continues because it is light punishment. Especially in these schools mainly.

It is important to recognize that children and adolescents are still in the process of developing their decision-making and impulse control skills, and may not always fully understand the consequences of their actions. Additionally, there may be other factors that contribute to problematic behavior in young people, such as peer pressure, mental health issues, or difficult family situations.

In some cases, leniency may be appropriate in order to provide opportunities for learning and growth. Punishing children too harshly may not always be the most effective way to address the underlying issues.

That being said, it is important to hold young people accountable for their actions and provide appropriate consequences when necessary. This can help teach them to take responsibility for their behavior and make better choices in the future.

Schools and other institutions can play an important role in this process by providing support and guidance to students, and working with families to address underlying issues that may contribute to problematic behavior. It is also important for parents and caregivers to be actively involved in their children's lives and provide appropriate guidance and discipline when necessary.
