Why Must I Be Grounded

Hello, my name is CDrake, I am 8 I have Blond hair blue eyes, I’m in my very hot room for swearing and like to be sarcastic. My family of 7 all my height all look alike my father toned muscle blond hair and we get our sarcastic personality from my mother. but they do not like swearing, that’s why I’m in my super hot and humid room, with a dry mouth thinking about what I said, I don’t like being grounded for swearing. not being able to leave this super hot humid room to play games but for now, I’m grounded. now grounded from being outside and watching tv, as later you can imagine I did something wrong, I swore don’t want to repeat it but I didn’t think it was that bad.

I once was playing kickball in the backyard of my house with the smell of fresh-cut grass I really like this game because I like to run in the grass I am very competitive and very active I get carried away due to how much I want to win. the mistake happened a bit later when the sun started to almost it was still a scorching hot sunny day out, I’m not much of a really hot weather person and I could sense something bad was going to happen. In the bright green grass. That is where I messed up. when I didn’t win the game I sat down in the fluffy bed of grass and I said, “This is a load of crap” The wind seemed to stop and nothing but dead silence, and I should have said “I’m sorry” and see where that got me but I didn’t accept it then. Nearby My parents said “Why did you swear like that? ” in a curious tone, the long pauses by my parents my mom turned around her hair whipping around my dad turning around and seeing his face grow with disgust. They eventually said, “You are grounded” with a mean tone.

Grounded means nothing except sit in your room and eat supper then go straight to bed no staying up late until 8:00. my mom came up the creaky stairs and said “I am disappointed that you swore” in a more saddened tone. Really made me sad because we were having a barbeque and since I’m not allowed outside I sat alone smelling the food I hear everyone having fun without me.

It was time for everyone to come in because it was almost bedtime I ate all by myself in the kitchen at the table sitting on a wooden chair thinking about why I should have not said anything at all. Thinking ” If I would not have sworn I could have had fun with them ate food with everyone” feeling really sad, now time for bed my Parents come upstairs and said ” I don’t know why you swore but we can’t have that,” I said “I’m sorry I won’t ever do it again,” they said goodnight and that’s why I was grounded so I went to bed thinking I won’t ever swear again.
