I have never understood why this was the go to punishment for students that didn't want to be at school.

"Don't want to be at school? Well then, fine! You're not allowed at school. Ha, that sure showed that rambunctious rascal!"

"Uhh..." plays Zelda or whatever

Because now the parents have to provide proper care for the children. it's a way to involve the parents.

it fails if the parents are not involved in their kids lives or are just struggling to make ends meet as it is.

It also removes disruptive kids from.the system. Which should allow the other kids to focus.
