Potioncat:
But it also seems that the twins comment on the reminder that is 
given at the end of the end of the school year.  And at the Weasley 
home, we see Ron and Harry carrying things to the table because they 
aren't allowed magic, while the adult brothers are using magic.

So it looks as if parents are enforcing the rule, if nothing else.
