We do not allow our opponents to play in in 2♣ or 2♦ voluntarily! - with Don Messer

Hi, !
Your hand: ♠JT7 ♥432 ♦K62 ♣AJ82
The auction goes 1♦, pass, 2♦, pass, pass... and it's up to you to do something to prevent your opponents from having the easy 2♦ contract. What do you do?

Don Messer, our wonderful guest teacher based out of Austin, Texas, has a proposed agreement for us all: We do not allow our opponents to play in in 2♣ or 2♦ voluntarily.
Sounds pretty simple. And it makes sense, right? But how do we decide what do to do if it comes down to us to stop them and we don't have an especially strong hand or even suit?
