Yes, because you never want to ruin someone's day when punishing them for something...

My friend's parents, not mine. my point was, it ruins their friends' day too. You should take away other priveledges instead.

Then that gives your friend something think about then, doesnt it?

I don't think I've ever been grounded...

It depends on how the kids are and how the parents are. Sometimes grounding is a very effective tool. Just cause it doesn't suit you, doesn't mean they shouldn't do it

my friends mom is waaaay too extreme when it comes to stuff like that, it makes me so sad because she's a really good kid and doesn't deserve it. 
oh man, i just got home from work and i chopped onions today and i'm still crying.

I didn't necessarily say they shouldn't do it, I said that In the future (if I keep my current opinions) I won't do it. I myslef have never been grounded, or punished that I can recall since I was in grade four.
although, I think my friend's parents are too severe about it. She has in the past been grounded for trivial things like accidently missing the bus, or failing a quiz even though she tried really hard.

I wasn't either... worst that I ever got was sent to bed early once in my life.
Man, I was such a good kid... I really really really REALLY hope my kids get that from me.Posted: 1/2/2005, 7:21 pm
