There are more actionable books

“How to win friends and influence people” is a great book. I can also recommend How to Talk to Anyone: “92 Little Tricks for Big Success in Relationships” by Leil Lowndes

Reading books about how to behave in social settings was very effective in reducing my social anxiety

In my school the teacher locked them under the desk and brought them to the Principal’s office after class.

I never heard that any phone got stolen

Did the teachers stole the phones or how did that even happen? 💀

Ok,

My plan was just to make a “admin” user that has admin and sudo rights and then remove admin/sudo from my main user.

as the kids just take them out as soon as the teacher turns their back

The logout mechanism just needs to though me out of my way and take at least 5 minutes (better more) to circumvent, this will probably be enough for me to do the right thing.

Having an alert to remind you that you wanted to stop will be more pursuasive. (I have a “go to bed” alarm with a gentle, gradually increasing volume on my phone)
