Teen (or younger) character is grounded at an inopportune time (usually near the end of Act 2). Often, the person doing the punishing does not have an exceptional reason, or just has a sense that the teen is out of control and needs to calm down (or that the younger character has misbehaved or otherwise did something wrong). So they restrict the youngster's social life for a time (which is usually left unsaid in most instances in media) by banning them from leaving the house and/or having friends over. Of course, if the character is of school age and the grounding takes place during term time, chances are they will be allowed out to go to school - unless they have also been suspended or expelled. In addition, for teenagers, if the grounding takes place when they have a job, they will be allowed to go to work - unless they have been fired or they quit. But in either case, said parent may also tell said kid "I don't want to hear a peep out of you", meaning that they must be absolutely quiet until they have been released, mostly to prevent any temper tantrums they may throw due to their perceived unfairness of the sentence. The punished character usually sneaks out the window or similarly blows off the punishment to finish off the story. After the story is completed, the grounding or suspension is never mentioned again. Similarly, if a character is grounded at the end of an episode, you can expect that in the next episode, said grounding will no longer be in effect, or mentioned at all. The grounding is the one common absolute that links every television show (especialy sitcoms), cartoon, network, production company, and franchise in history and beyond together. It is the Iron-clad law of film, television and print. It is the snake biting its own tail, as the groundings of real-life are influenced by the groundings of media, and vice versa. The kiddie version of Turn in Your Badge. A possible consequence of being Caught Coming Home Late. If the punishment is blatantly excessive, it's Grounded Forever. Contrast with Hands-Off Parenting which involve parents who rarely, if ever, punish their children. Truth in Television as parents do ground children and teenagers for bad behavior or conduct (on the other hand, it is much more widespread in the US than elsewhere, especially prolonged grounding). Stricter parents, especially in older time periods, are also liable to say Don't Make Me Take My Belt Off!. Note: There is one situation where an adult will be told this with a straight face: Pilots who, either due to misconduct or more mundane circumstances (such as bad weather), are restricted from flying. In the punitive variations, this is actually either Turn in Your Badge or being made to be a Desk Jockey. |

In Continuance, when Souji Setanote aka Yu Narukami, the protagonist returns to visit Inaba for Golden Week under the pretext of gathering information on the town's businesses. When Yuuma, his father, doesn't like what Souji brings back, Yuuma grounds him and forbids him from visiting Inaba for the foreseeable future. Later on, after Souji ends up on the cover of a magazine after a chance encounter with Rise, he gets into a heated argument with his father, during which Yuuma starts to threaten him. Souji, however, isn't fazed, saying "And what are the repercussions this time? You can't ground me any more than you already have, Father." | |

In South Park: The Fractured but Whole, this is used by and weaponized by Butters' dad. He targets areas of the battlefield, and then grounds the kids in said areas, dealing damage while afflicting the targeted kids with the Grounded status (basically similar to Petrify in that they can't do anything and it doesn't wear off over time). Conveniently this attack is a No-Sell on the Player Character, the New Kid, who also have the power to unground their peers, thereby curing them of the status effect. Butters' dad is completely baffled by these powers. | |

In Star Wars: Poe Dameron, Poe is told this with a straight face by General Organa. As he's a pilot, it's meant in the literal sense. It's not a punitive version, however—she's forcing him to take some time off to deal with his grief after the loss of a member of his squadron. | |

Yes, Your Grace: Princess Asalia will sneak out to go to a wedding early in the game, and King Eryk will prevent her from leaving the castle for a while after that as punishment. The end of the grounding period isn't explicitly stated, but it seems to be done by the time Maya is forbidden to enter the castle, as Asalia is still regularly seeing her after this and has to leave the castle to do so. | |

Not long before Manehattan's Lone Guardian begins, Ebony is grounded by Gray for stealing some cake from one of her friends, leaving her unable to go with the rest of the family on a trip outside the city. While the grounding ends on its own terms eventually, this still puts the pediophobic Ebony in the unfavorable position of being the first to interact with Leviathan directly. | |

In World of Warcraft, one quest in Drustvar involves you searching for an old man's grandson and some of his friends, who had the brilliant idea of going on an archaeological expedition into an area full of troggs. After you save all the kids, the old man notes that the children could have the makings of being good architects when they're adults... which will be around the time they're no longer grounded for that stunt. The actual length of the grounding(two months) is lenient by comparison. | |

Sister Bear is grounded in The Berenstain Bears and the Slumber Party by Mama Bear after things go south at Lizzie's slumber party. It's actually Papa Bear who is the voice of reason and admits that they as parents were partially to blame for not knowing just how wacky things had ended up with the slumber party (which had basically become a little bear cub girl equivalent of a bad college frat party.) The grounding then gets cancelled the next day, and Sister and Mama go back to Lizzie's house to clean the mess up. | |

This was a minor threat in early Animorphs books, before the war became more and more divorced from normal life. The only time a grounding ends up affecting the plot is The Andalite's Gift, and even then, Jake is able to get out of it by cleaning the garage. Because his mom's been after his dad to do that forever, and he's more than happy to dump it off on his son. This is phased out with the introduction of the Chee, androids who had been impersonating and living among humans since the days of the pyramids, and were more than happy to cover for the Animorphs if needed. And by the very end of the series, it was completely moot because things had become so bad that the Animorphs were basically on the run and could no longer even live in a regular family structure. | |

The Boy Who Cried Idiot: Lincoln's parents ground him for biting his textbook and blaming Martin for throwing it, not realising that it was a raccoon who bit the textbook and that Lincoln was telling the truth when he blamed Martin. Later, he extends the grounding to two weeks after Lincoln (accidentally) hits Leni and then to three weeks after Lincoln gets into a fight with Martin and Chandler. | |

In South Park: The Stick of Truth, when the Hall Monitor's health drops enough he does a desperation attack of calling the New Kid's parents. If you fail to stun or defeat him before two turns, the call succeeds and the New Kid gets a phone call from his dad telling him he's grounded. This is considered a Non-Standard Game Over. | |

Scarlet Lady's take on "The Collector" sees Adrien get grounded for 'losing' his father's secret book about the Miraculous. Notably, Gabriel originally threatened to pull him out of school entirely, only for Adrien to make clear that if he did that, he'd ensure that it blew up into a PR scandal. Being grounded for a month is considerably less awful... though that doesn't stop Chloé from reacting as though this is the worst possible thing that could have ever happened to her. | |

Schlendrian tries this on his daughter Lieschen in Schweigt stille, plaudert nicht to get her to stop drinking coffee and quickly gets desperate; perhaps the apex (or nadir) is when he forbids her from standing by windows. Lieschen isn't fazed by any of it until Schlendrian forbids her from marrying, which changes her mind very quickly (or not). | |

In The Saga of Tuck when Tuck's family find out about his female alter ego Valerie, they not only ground him for six weeks, they fine him $500 and — worst of all to him — cut off his phone and network privileges. To be fair, he had feared it would be even worse than this, and they did later reduce it to two weeks' grounding. Subverted in that Hilarity Ensues and the two weeks expire without much notice. He is, however, grounded the entire time. Also subverted similarly during Valentine's Day. The occasion of the grounding being removed (what else do you call it? "expired"?) is cause for a celebration, which probably ought to get him grounded a second time. | |

In Dragon Ball Z, in a filler episode in the Frieza Saga, Chi-Chi tries to invoke this to Gohan when she was speaking to him through the monitor when he was in Namek when the planet was going to explode, after the latter ignored her and Master Roshi's questions when they were talking to him (it was justified, as he had no time to answer their questions). Chi-Chi does apologize for yelling at him and ungrounds him in the next episode though. This however only exists in the original English Dub of the series; as trying to Americanize anime - even when trying to be faithful to the original story - was commonplace around that time; even when it comes to localizing dialogue. | |

Juniper Sawfeather: In Echo of the Cliffs, June climbs down a cliff to the shore in pursuit of a mermaid. The mermaid drags her out into the ocean, almost drowning her. As punishment for endangering her life, June's parents ground her for two weeks, which means no phone, no internet, and no talking to Haley or Carter. Their house's internet connection is so spotty that June barely misses it, and it's not hard to get around the rest of her punishment. She lives next door to Haley and their rooms face each other, so they can just open their windows and talk whenever they want, and a week into her grounding she gets a job at the pet store where Carter works so they can see each other during their shift change. | |
