You make a rule. This isn't a technology problem.

My kids are the kind with the attitude that "rules are made to be broken", which I like. It's like the hacker's ethos almost.

Why bother having a rule if you're not going to enforce it? I agree that questioning authority is healthy, but people also are required to follow rules on occasion and it's your job to teach them how to do that. Using a technological solution to a discipline issue is a short term bandaid for a long time problem.
