Hi,

We have a 16 year old daughter and live in the UK. We usually ground
her for a weekend. How long do other parents ground for? My wife
tends to make it a short sharp shock by assigning an essay to be
completed over the weekend.

It depends entirely upon the infraction -- at one point, when we were
having curfew issues, it was one day for each 10 minutes they were late,
for example.
