when i was a child, i had the greatest fear of getting grounded by my parents. and with reason, seeing as how i truly belived that when kid got grounded, they were buried in the ground for the duration of their punishment. when a friend of mine was grounded, i vividly remember asking my mother if it hurt. she laughed, which confused me throuroughly.
