I Hate Getting Grounded

It seems like I'm always grounded. The latest time was beyond awful! And I had my phone taken off me for 3 months too. Bloody mobile phones cause nowt but trouble! But I'm back, hopefully for good this time.

Yikes! 3 months without a phone must have been like pure hell. My daughters would have gone stir crazy.

@liondog I think I did go stir crazy!!! Although no one would notice any difference!! 😂

At least it's over and done with now and you have your phone back.
Katy03 · 18-21, F
@liondog Yup, and they know that I'm on here now too. So that's not a secret any more. But the days of me sending photos are well and truly over!

Certainly not worth losing your phone again for another 3 months or even longer. Plus I'm sure you got a very long lecture about being safe online.

@liondog I'd never get it back again! Thats assuming I lived through whatever hiding I'd get!! And a very long lecture seems to have lasted 6 months, with no end in sight!

After reading your latest story I now understand why your parents were so strict about it. I'm sure you've already heard this, but you never know where those pictures are going to end up. Anyway, I'll end my lecture there.

@liondog Yup. Appreciated. Thanks for the phone - that'll give them another one to go through! Maybe they won't understand that one though! 😂

@liondog Obvs I'm only joking!! (For the purposes of the parents if they read this!!) Oh dear, I'm gonna land myself in it so much! 😂

In that case perhaps I should clarify that it was a virtual gift sent on here and not a real tablet.

@liondog Haha. I think even the technophobe parents would be able to work that much out!! 😉

Well, us oldies do have our moments of insanity and dementia..........wait, what was I saying?....Where am I?.......What year is this? 😋

@liondog 🤣🤣🤣
Me dad's favourite expression at the minute seems to be "I'm pretty sure you weren't born with a phone in your hand!" Just cos he can't use his!! lol

At the rate things are going I wouldn't be surprised if kids are born with phones in their hands one day. Guess you heard that line from your dad a lot over the last 3 months. We might not always know what day of the week it is, but we have very good memories when it comes to things like grounding and what day it is due to end.

@liondog Aye, that's very true like. I hear it all the time. Shame he can't remember birthdays and special events though. Honestly, I thought I was useless!!
liondog · 51-55, M
We have our dear wives to remind us about those things. I'm sure he never forgets your birthday though. Or should I say that you'd never let him forget if he did.
