How long should I be grounded for?

I believe a month seems like a little bit TOO much as well … maybe like 2 weeks but a MONTH??? that’s crazy !

I’ve never had a curfew so I dont know how long I would get grounded. a month is a lot

reguardless if you think it’s fair or not, your mom is your mom

I think you sould have atleast called, who cares if it would have woke them up, I dont think you would have been grounded 4 that.

You should have called anyways. Honestly… You may have woke your family up, but your parents were probley worried. I’d rather the phone wake someone up then have my parents worried about me. Thats terrible. Next time I hope you call no matter what. No matter how long you think you should be grounded for, its not your choice… its your parents choice, so I guess you’ll find out. You are 15-years-old, you should feel lucky that your curfew is 12:30… my best friend is 17-years-old and her curfew is 10.

dont mean to sound rude but if they were that worried then why didnt they have their phones with them. I would have if I was worried so that if you did call/text they would know.

I think it is slightly harsh a whole month for being 1 hour late. But ok…1.30 is pretty late. Im not even aloud out after 10.00pm and im 15 (16 in June)

“I am an extremely responsible 15 year old, and I was with even more responsible friends.”

If your friends were so responsible then why did they not take you home when you needed to go? I’m sure it was a good movie but I am also sure that you could see it again on DVD. Yes, you should be grounded for a month. It was your responsibility to be home on time and you weren’t. Add to that the fact that you didn’t notify them of what was going on, never rely on a text message unless you get a reply. You are after all only 15 years old. As parents we know that there are things out there that are not good for you or safe for you and it is our job to see that you do the right thing. You may think your parents are being to strict but obviously you aren’t as responsible as you claim to be or they would have known what was going on from the get go and could have come and picked you up.
