Grounding is a standard parental discipline technique. But a frustrated parent may blurt out that their child will be detained for a ridiculous amount of time, often past the point they would reach the age of adulthood, for something very minor. Occasionally, the punishment may be for something quite serious, but the parent cannot think up a different punishment. Considering the fact that grounding someone for the rest of their life is a little excessive, they'll usually bring it down to a more reasonable amount of time (though this usually happens off-screen).
Alternately, a teacher (usually a Sadist Teacher) will give a student severely extended detention, usually long enough to extend well after the kid has graduated.
A subtrope of You Are Grounded!, often falling under Disproportionate Retribution. Almost always undone via Snap Back or Negative Continuity. An inversion would be grounding the child for a ridiculously short amount of time for a very serious offense.
Not to be mistaken with the show Grounded for Life.
Compare Longer-Than-Life Sentence, where prisoners are sentenced to serve an amount of time that's way longer than anyone can be expected to live.
Contrast Corrective Lecture, which is at the milder end of the punishment scale.

In Smart Guy Floyd says tells TJ he's grounded forever when he finds out TJ lied about drinking alcohol at a former classmate's birthday party (and were all 12 - 13 yr olds). He rescinds when Yvette makes him realize said overreaction was due to realizing not even a smart person like T.J. is immune to peer pressure, which leads to Floyd sitting down with T.J. to have a proper discussion about it.

The Adventures of Pete & Pete has the episode "Grounded for Life" in which Little Pete is grounded for a month after his experiment (placing a humidifier next to a dehumidifier) produced an explosion that ruined the lawn. Inspired by Artie's gift, an ant farm, Little Pete literally digs his way out of the house using a Statue of Liberty paperweight.

In Full House, after finding out Michelle ran away from home (actually to her friend's house, where the parents called the Tanners) as retaliation for being punished, Danny says he plans to go to the house, then "to hug her, then kiss her, then ground her for life". Jesse talks him out of it and tells him of a better plan that worked on him as a child that will ensure she'll want to come home. The punishment, in this case, was that, rather than give in to her demands was to make her think she was going to have to live at the friend's house since running away meant she didn't like living with them. It ends up working and she returns home without a fight.

Darkwing Duck:
Gosalyn Mallard usually gets grounded for life by her father (along with her allowance being suspended until further notice)
When Honker is held responsible for an art theft that was committed by the villain Splatter Phoenix in the episode "A Brush With Oblivion", his parents ground him in his room. His father makes a list of things Honker isn't allowed to have, including going out, having friends over, watching television, and sunlight, food, and water. His wife points out that those last few items are a bit excessive.
In "Star Crossed Circuits", Drake tells his daughter Gosalyn that she's grounded for 50 years after being informed of what house rules Gosalyn had broken by the D-2000.
"Fraudcast News" has Darkwing ask Launchpad what he could have done to drive Gosalyn to side with the Bugmaster (unaware that Gosalyn is playing The Mole to help bring the villain down). Launchpad reminds him that Darkwing once informed Gosalyn that she was grounded until her senior year of high school.

RWBY: After Weiss has a meltdown towards her father Jacques and a party-goer at a charity ball (resulting in her accidentally using her Semblance in the process), Jacques severely punishes her by removing her heiress status of the Schnee Dust Company in favor of Whitley and imprisons her in the family manor indefinitely until they can "come up with an agreement to her future." Weiss manages to escape the manor a few episodes later with help of the family's butler Klein.

The Canadian animated series Detentionaire uses both the grounded and detention variants of this trope. After Lee Ping is framed for a massive prank he didn't commit, he is sentenced to detention for the entire school year while his strict mother (a teacher at his school) grounds him for the same length of time.

The Suite Life of Zack & Cody: "Doin' Time in 2330." After Zack and Cody deliberately skip out on their punishment to take part in London's web show (along with The Cheetah Girls, Chris Brown, and Maddie), Carey snaps, to some degree.
The detention variant is used at the beginning of one episode of The Suite Life on Deck. When Zack asks Moseby how long will he be there, Moseby tells him that it's permanent, or until Zack graduates, but since he never will it might as well be permanent.

While Blythe is grounded, her Littlest Pet Shop friends recover her confiscated cell phone and continued to film a reaction of the same incident, with Roger Baxter in hot pursuit of the same runaway truck filled with sweets, resulting in a major death of his dummy pal (while getting a traffic ticket by a police officer). Roger later apologizes to Blythe, ungrounds her, and joins her in his father/daughter race.

Jackie Chan Adventures: The episode "Jade Times Jade" has Jade using one of Uncle's spells to create a clone of herself to stay behind while she accompanies Jackie to Japan to find The Dark Hand. The only problem is that the Jade clone accompanies the real Jade and keeps producing more clones due to Jade not applying a finishing spell. After The Dark Hand is defeated, the spell must be removed, but it will only work on the real Jade. Unable to tell which Jade is the real one (by now, there are hundreds of Jade clones), Jackie convinces the clones to identify the real Jade by saying that she will have no TV for a year.

Rocket Power:
In one episode, Otto and Twister go out into a hurricane to retrieve Twister's video camera. When Raymundo tracks down and rescues them, Ray grounds Otto forever, to which Otto replies sincerely, "That's cool."
In a different episode, Ray declares that if his kids were caught sneaking out after dark, they would be grounded until they're his age. Subverted in the end when he only gives Otto three weeks of garbage duty.

Steven Universe:
Played for Laughs in "Fusion Cuisine", in another example of the Gems forgetting some things about humans:
Later episodes that season show this punishment is still in effect, much to his dad's confusion. The Gems give it back in the following season's "Joy Ride", acknowledging that Steven's been through a lot lately.

An episode of El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera ends with Manny admitting to his dad that he expects to be grounded until he's 30 for his actions. It appears as though his dad understands that Manny learned his lesson and will let him off the hook... until a Smash Cut depicts 30-year-old Manny shackled up in his room. Thank goodness for Negative Continuity.

Boy Meets World.
Played for Laughs: there was a significant gap in between the two actresses playing Morgan, resulting in the character being absent for about half a season. The new actress is introduced by coming downstairs and remarking, "That was the longest time-out I've ever had."
When the gang is in college, this is inverted by Dean Bolander, who suspends Cory for one day (and puts him on probation) for striking a teacher instead of immediate expulsion like would normally happen. The justification for this is that it is obvious that the professor he struck is very sleazy, and made a pass at Topanga and admitting to Cory he wasn't going to stop, which led to Cory striking him in the first place.

Malcolm in the Middle: Lois grounds the boys regularly in addition to all the other punishments she gives them when they misbehave. The one that takes the cake, however, is in the episode "Health Scare" when she grounds Malcolm and Reese for an entire week for tracking mud on the floor they had every intention of cleaning up. When they sneak out anyway, Lois then decides to ground them for the rest of the school year!'' The only justification for any of this is that Lois and Hal were both distracted due to Hal potentially having a terminal illness, which turns out to not be the case by the episode's end. On one other occasion, when he's nearly killed after broken glass from their broken TV just barely misses him, he goes on a tirade of how even their children will grow up in their house grounded. The reason Malcolm and Dewey didn't help was that they were both deaf due to incidents they both caused each other . Malcolm is still deaf so he does not hear his tirade either but judges by how red his father's face it, he probably should not ask to borrow his car.

In one Superman comic, Dick Grayson recalls his first encounter with Superman back when he was still Robin. A major crime operation was supposed to occur at the harbor in Gotham that evening, but Bruce Wayne's presence was required at a social event, and Dick was under strict instructions by both Bruce and Alfred to stay and home and finish his geography homework. Dick sneaked out and tried to stop it anyway - only to have to be rescued by Superman, who had also heard about the operation and decided to stop it himself. When Bruce returned home, he heard that the operation had been stopped by a caped hero, and figured that Dick had disobeyed his orders. He went up to his room to see if he was still there, ready to "ground him until he's 30" if he wasn't.

In My Wife and Kids, Michael punishes Claire by grounding her (and forcing her to do all the chores in the house) until she gets him an apple from the apple tree in the backyard. Then he gives her a few apple seeds.

In an episode of Salute Your Shorts, Sponge is permitted to use his computer to connect to a phone line (use of phones is usually prohibited at camp, and the show predates the widespread use of the internet). When the others find out, they use it behind Sponge's back and let him face the bum rap when they rack up an absurdly large phone bill. Sponge later laments that he's grounded for the rest of the summer, and if he comes back to camp the following summer, he'll still be grounded, and if he ever has kids and they come to the camp, they'll be grounded as well.
