Toilet blocked and teenagers

My toilet(only have one) is blocked and as I have three teenagers it's a bit of a nightmare. Tried the coat hanger trick,washing up liquid and hot water. Any other tips? Really can't afford a plumber!

Teach the teenagers how to clean and unblock a toilet. Provide a lidded bin with extra liners.
Make it their job to clean it daily and unblock as necessary.
Problem solved.

As an aside, thanks to whoever suggested citric acid for cleaning the bowl; it's taken the brown ring off completely.

Finally cleared it today,used a drain gel and then a toilet brush. Took ages but at least my toilet no longer stinks. Teenagers have been warned about excessive use of toilet roll.
