Yeah that would incite you to lie from now on.

And show by example that lying and arbitrary cruelty is ok, especially from a position of authority.

You tell em, you are either not grounded or you will not trust them for the rest of your life.

So you get grounded for 10 months and a therapist bill instead.

They tell you, you're not in a position to bargain ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Start leaving "school projects" about kids who killed their parents around

Get committed involuntarily

You win! They're bad parents.

This is the kind of parenting that may lead to kids leaving home & disappearing from the parents' lives the day they turn eighteen.
