So is it worse that you have to drive the <$10K car, that you can't have friends over, or that you can't sleep over with your boyfriend?

You're definitely a spoiled little biatch.

BTW, I've never been grounded. My parents didn't do that sort of thing.

Hell, I haven't had any form of punishment since I was 14 probably.

If your parents were smart, they'd have taken your net access away.

<< Where's the "I'm a whiny brat" option in the poll? >>




I DID NOT add that option. Who is responsible for tampering with my poll? :|

And to think, I'm pist at myself for only getting a 94 on my HS Chemistry final (test on everything we've learned throughout the semester).

You have it too easy. If I got grades like that, my teachers would gripe me out before my parents could. 10PM curfew sounds good to me. Even though I'm a Junior in HS, at almost 18 years old, I still like to be home way before 10. Also, your parents could have done a lot worse than what they've done. I would consider yourself lucky. My parents aren't the punishing type; I haven't been grounded/punished since I was like 10.

damn guys, no need to be so harsh

i don't believe for one second that you never thought a parent's punishment was unjust. Unless of course your parents died when you were very young and you were raised in an orphanage where it was a wicked drunk matron who beat you in which case I apologize for stirring those painful memories.

(I voted whiny brat)

maybe you should goto to special ed. with the grades you got, man if i didnt get straight A's in highschool my parents would have a fit. if i got C's D's and F's like you did i would have been worse then grounded.
