This argument has been going on for 15 or so pages and no one has mentioned a high school graduation ceremony where 'hold your applause' actually worked. If the 'problem' is so prevalent then it would make a whole lot more sense to explore the other options and actually find something that works rather than just judge and complain.
Cattle prods? The thing is that there are always going to be rude people who think the world is only about them. They are the "flashers" on disney dark rides, the cheaters on tests, the rent a disabled person for a gac kind of people. Just because people don't respect rules doesn't mean we shouldn't have them.
In her case it works at her school. Albeit by pushing out a principal who disagreed. Fine. I doubt she would be happy if she didn't hear her sons name because of raucous behavior from the family before. But maybe she is much more laid back than I am. While it was suggested I stay home if I don't like rude people the irony is that I just want to do what I came for. Hear my kids name and see him walk across a busy little stage.
