In 1969, when I was in 7th grade for the 3rd time, the teacher of English class, Brasley Bullock, who was of Jamaican decent, used to take the unused gum away from you if you were caught chewing, then give it back at the end of the semester and make those poor suckers who got caught chew it in front of class, or get detention for a week.
Those were the days.
And you, and I and countless other all survived, and are better off for it. (Lew is MUCH older than me. Just want to point that out. )

You can't do that now.... because, my goodness.... you might hurt their little feelings! Or worse yet, embarrass them in front of everyone!!

If they would just bring back. Starting at home.....
