Go to your room! Your grounded!

[Saltare.]

How often do you get grounded? How long are you usually grounded for? What are you grounded from?

I usually get grounded on a regular basis and I'm usually grounded for 2-7 days and usually grounded from:

Outside
Computer
Wii(any video games)
Coming out of my room unless I have a good reason to:
Walk to the dogs
Eat breakfast/lunch/dinner
Go to the bathroom

My parents can be pretty strict at times.

I never got grounded for a long time now. What I usually get grounded from is usually the computer. Everything else I get to keep.

People actually still get grounded? My parents gave up on that crap a long time ago.

yeah people still get grounded for many many reasons:

Flunking a test
Cursing
Not doing a chore
Backtalking

and many more. and LUCKY! I wish my parents gave up on grounding. If my bro and I are really bad, they'll bring out "the belt" don't ask. My friends get paddled.....

almost never... and only for like 2-3 days (though, I sometimes get a chance to redeem myself and get a day knocked of the groundation)

usually getting suspended from school or missing to many days or something results in the groundation, but I dunno...

 

[Pomum Lux]

I rarely do anything bad, so I almost never get grounded, but when I do, it's normally just a 2 - 4 day ban from the computer. I'm lucky to have such nice parents. :>

My Parents does nothing i think they forgot about groundings.When I did get grounded it was a yell only which I can take.

 

[Minato]

I haved been forbidden to leave my house or room for, like, years. It wouldn't be effective anyway, lol. A while back, though, I earned myself a week-long computer ban, but I didn't mind much and did other stuff. The whole grounding thing doesn't work for me xD. If my parents want to discipline me, they'll assign chores. Lots, and lots of chores. >___>

 

[Saltare.]

I get wayy to many chores:

Walking dogs
Do the dishes
Clean the bathroom/kitchen
Make dinner
babysit


yeah.

 

[Kylie-chan]

I've never been grounded for longer than about a day and a half, and it's always a computer ban. It's kind of difficult to ground someone who only leaves the house to go to school.

 

[Chikara]

It used to be on a normal basis. I get grounded from the computer and nothing else ._.;
The longest I've ever been grounded wassssss.... I think 2 months.

 

[Saryka]

I used to get grounded a lot when I was younger, but they were only for a week or so, never longer. Now, I still get grounded, but my parents tend to forget that they've punished me, so it doesn't last more than a day or so. XD;

 

[Ibuberu]

I only get grounded from the computer most of the time. And usually, its only because of an argument, and whenever that blows over, I get my computer back. I only get grounded from going out during the holidays, the only time when I HAVE time to go out with friends to play xD; Outside of that, my parents don't really ground me that much.

 

[Signomi]

Surprisingly enough, I have never been grounded before. My parents didn't believe grounding to be anything significant when I was a child, even now they still hold to that. I don't think I've ever done anything dire enough to warrant any privileges taken away from me. I used to get scolded quite a lot as a kid and that was enough to discipline myself from doing anything reckless.

 

[Toblerone]

Me too, i have never been grounded, as my parents think it's just pointless, and i wasn't that bad when i was young, so.. i never really got close to getting grounded.

 

[usami]

I've never been grounded in my life. :s
Well, one time we were 'grounded', but that lasted like 3 minutes, I don't really think that counts.

 

[Cherrim]

I don't even live at home most of the time anymore so my parents can't ground me. :P Even when I am home, though, I never get in trouble. The worst thing I ever do is... well, not completing my chores which is punishable by... making me do my chores? I've always been a good kid and there's not much to ground me from to begin with, not to mention none of us remember and it never works, so yeah. XD; I've voluntarily banned myself from certain electronics before in order to get things done so even that's a pretty shaky substitute for punishment.

 

[Zet]

I've never been grounded, haven't done anything super bad before

 

[Sammi]

The last time I was grounded, I was still in elementary school. :P

I'm a good kid, so I usually follow the rules (except for the below one), and nothing bad happens to me. In fact, I've been rewarded because I'm a good kid. XD;

Back in the day, I was only supposed to be on the computer an hour a day. I used to follow it, then I got modded here, and yeah... I started staying on longer without asking. I've broken the computer time rules time and time again, but my parents never punished me for it. I don't know why, though. Maybe they really didn't care?

I think I was grounded once for getting in trouble at school. Though it wasn't strictly enforced and it only lasted like a day. I'm pretty good at sneaking around my parents, so I never got caught in order to get grounded. Then, by the time I was a senior in high school, they didn't care anymore and I told them what I was doing.
