What for?? I was grounded a lot. Mostly for talking back to my mom or if I got bad grades or something. Nothing too major.

I wasn't grounded often.=/ I would get grounded from the phone for 2 days for being on it so much. But, I do remember getting grounded for a month at age 16 for coming home drunk. That was the first and last time I ever drank while still living at home. It was horrible. I was glad to be grounded. .

My brother and I would get grounded for lying to our mom or being mean to each other. We fought like cats and dogs until we went to college.

I was grounded from about 4th grade thru 7th grade for the same reasons pretty much. Imagine that, a redheaded kid being mouthy & stubborn, lol.

i sure was, I was grounded for going out the back door of our house when my father told me not to set foot outside the front door. The worst punishment I ever received was being sent to my room, and that was like no punishment at all as my phone, tv, and stereo were in there.
