Yes; and getting rid improves nothing. I just think in the best schools you rarely need to react to stuff.

They’re useful for many things.

Walkie talkies: often a likely symptom of behaviour management being more reactive than proactive.

Can I make one and how long does it take?

I’m ok with them all in principle until I think about any of them individually and then I hate it and decide (maybe wrongly) I would have said no.

But also: how does one change this systematically?

I think this is true. My Dad was 25 when I was six and tbh he was way more mature and less selfish than I am at 47.

Room 101 for tightly-wrapped vinyl that needs a knife to pierce.

So it *was* a stupid question. Ta
