Now requiring parents to stay home with their kids or have them watched by another adult and sending both the kid and the adult who was supposed to be watching them to prison if the kid acts out, that would work. Do you really think parents would let their kids bully other kids if they could be sent to prison for five years if their kid did it?  I don't.

 Do you really think parents have that much control over their kids, especially into high school? Some kids are bullies despite being brought up by good parents, who drilled into them that they should show kindness to other people and shouldn't harm anyone for any reason. And if you mean by the first part of that paragraph that bullies should be under supervision 24/7, then that's just insane.

 Well if they were not doing something wrong then they wouldn't need to be watched.  Kids can't be trusted, they need to be watched or they will bully other kids.

Another option is to send any kid who bullies to prison for life. After all they have proven they are a danger to other children so I say lock them up to protect all the other kids. It's a simple solution and it would stamp out the problem completely.
