Just wait till time runs out. There is no other way to forfeit round. Or if Mall agrees, you can have debate deleted instead. Maybe thats the best way. But as it is now, round can either be posted either wait till time runs out. But you can post completely empty round by typing space instead of letters here. Or just write "i forfeit" in round and post it.

Is there a way i could forfiet

@Mall

Sorry i was busy with another debate!!

I really wonder how will Mall argue this. Its a difficult debate for Con, but there is actually one flaw in the topic which can be used to argue opposite. I want to see if Mall will use argument I have in mind.

@Mieky

What is this debate about? What is your stance? Are you in favor or against?

-->
@TheGreatSunGod

Okay

@Mieky

Thats a wide definition. Opens plenty of goalposts to be had, no specific goalpost set. I will consider accepting this after I check just how many goalposts will I lose if I accept.

@TheGreatSunGod

"Should" in this debate means whether it is the right, appropriate, or best decision for schools to make. It's asking if banning phones during the school day is a good idea, considering the consequences, benefits, and values in it.

@Mieky

I mean, whats the definition of "should" here? If its "improves health" or "reduces distractions", then its not really possible to argue against.
