I never really got grounded for much. We had other ways of dealing with issues. However, my girlfriend recently got grounded for asking her father to go to the store to buy some bread.
She lives alone with her father and is usually the one that does the shopping, the cleaning and the cooking (Besides getting good grades and trying to uphold some social life). While studying for a test she asked her father if he could go to the store and buy some bread, he said no because he rather wanted to watch soccer and drink beer like he always does. She says she has to study and is hungry, and it's raining, he says no and throwing this back and forth a little she's grounded for a week, she says it's stupid and is grounded for two weeks. She gets mad and slams the door to her room shut and gets three weeks of grounding, which if expanded to a month if she doesn't stay at home.
