I get grounded for a month cuz i tried playing destiny at 3 am
Was it worth it, no...., will i do it again, probably; the reason it was for a month was cuz i did it another time which was the day the taken king came out, so it sucked when she barged in my room and immediately grounded me for a month but knowing she was mad, i knew she would make it 2 weeks.
So idk what I was thinking still but i played again the day after & the day after that which pissed off my mom to the point where she gave me 3 days with grounding, i accepted that. After about a week i start setting my alarm at 2:30 am & 3:00 am to wake me up and play before I go to school, I cant play during the weekdays so this was my only way to play unless I wanted to wait until Friday each week....so anyways, up until now i haven't been caught.
Funny thing that happened was that I woke up at 3 again (today) & as I was turning on my console & starting a mission, I had to take a piss so i sneak out of the room like a ninja (cuz im so good at that, *cough* *cough*; no i ain't) then i start hearing movement coming from my parents' room.
I finish taking a piss and so i stand by my room & i realize i can hear the hum of the console from the room & i immediately thought (*dam, this is so easy to hear, ima have to move my console next time, i dont feel like moving it cuz then I'd have to turn the console on and wait for destiny to load*) so I went in my room & locked it, turned on the tv (cuz i turned it off when I went to take a piss) and then the knocks of doom and the screams of grounding came to my door and as I turned the console off & pretended to act as I've been sleeping, i opened the door & wham she just said, "ur grounded for a month, i heard it", immediately thought (*i shouldve fkin listened to my gut feeling about moving the console*) now if u read this whole story congratulate you, now the whole reason i posted this was ask the destiny community, do u think it was worth it?
I'm a senior with decent grades, I was brought up playing video games starting with the Nintendo 64, my mom knows i love to play video games, yet whenever I want to play she's always restricting me to an hour (normally i ignore the fact that she just gave me an hour & play till she says no more; since I consider it inhuman, sometimes I get lucky with 2-3 hours. & this is on weekends only) cuz as I said previously i cant ever play on the weekdays. I heard of all ppl playing for longer & for each day, do u think i should leave the house & become like squidward & ask for "spare change" & move out of the house. Nah jk thats a "full retard"ed idea just like never going full titan, maybe I should kill my parents & play destiny to my hearts content until police find out like i heard on the news one time.
One things for sure, if my mom restricts me after i graduate, I swear to god im movin my ass to another city & renting an apartment. P.S. I commend u if u read this whole shit of a story, so ima ask it again, Do u think it was worth it? What should i do when trials comes out....Should I continue abiding by my moms rule of balancing thing when i go to school for 7 hours, do work for more than half that time, get home, do hw for another 3 hours, eat, sleep, then repeat for 4 days, then on Friday-Sunday play about 1-3 hours each day.
Edit: i made paragraphs, r u English teachers happy?
Edit: I DIDN'T KNOW I WAS IN ENGLISH CLASS AGAIN, LET ME CLARIFY, I'LL TRY HARDER TO WRITE LIKE A PROPER PERSON SHOULD WHEN I'M TYPING A STORY
Edit: to answer some of the same questions, I had gotten the console as a present from my aunt but it recently broke and so my mother bought it again for a cheap price, so it's not like i can just take it away
Edit: almost 500 posts, i gotta admit, these types of topics gets more attention than topics about the game....

Get over just play on the weekends you're a kid your parents can do what ever they want when it comes to controlling your play Time they birthed you raised you feed you and cloth you this is some first world problems

Edited by uncle_yugles: 10/19/2015 4:22:36 PMJust wait til Friday then just go all out no life on the weekend. That's what I do. Last Friday I stayed up til 5 am playing with two of my friends P.S. How in the world can you stand waking up at 3 am?!

Have you tried hitting her yet?

From this story, it sounds as if your mom is much more worried about your education and future than you are. If I were you I would listen to her. In highschool I barely played videogames cause I knew that it was wasting time. Now in college which is wayyyyyy easier imo I do have some time occasionally. If I were you, I would focus on my education and not play. Your mom doesn't seem as bad as you describe her because all she did was ground you. I think she was right in doing so, and she should take away your console. You shouldn't deceive your parents. If they are really that horrible that you have to, then deal with that problem rather than waking up and playing in the middle of the night

Edited by iN1GH7M4R3: 10/19/2015 4:19:55 PMNow you didn't hear this from me, but if you're gonna play early in the morning; - block the lower crack of your door with loose sheets. It drains a lot of the sound out. -don't do it every day. You get sloppy when done in quick succession due to lack of sleep and getting to comfortable. - since your parents know you do this, if you plan on doing it, got take a piss, and listen to their breathing patterns when you go by their rooms. They should be very faint and be at about a five second cycle. You shouldn't play in the morning, though as it reduces the trust your parents have in you. If you get caught a third time just stop completely.

Ps tv, my friend. That's all you need. But just chill. They only gon clean the slate next dlc, and you start all over again... So honestly you aren't missing anything

I did the same this with mw2

When I was a senior I never had this problem (I'm 20). From reading this it sounds like you're probably immature for your age, therefore the rules are probably immature as well. Act more grown, you're practically an adult, video games aren't everything. Just listen to your parents and be a good kid and it'll get better. Take it from me, if you moved to go get an apartment you would need a job. And working a job to afford an apartment doesn't leave you much time to play. So you'd basically be trading game time for work time. Welcome to being an adult.

Playing destiny at 3am [b]THUG LIFE[/b]
-
was it harsh? no, cause you tried to outplay the parenting system and got caught. on principle alone the punishment needs to be more harsh. as for only getting an hour of time to play, I'd try having a real conversation with your parents. an hour is hardly enough time to accomplish anything in this game. try cutting deals or setting up a consistent time frame that you can play in. parents like when their child begins to structure their own lives around responsibility and down time

7 RepliesHow old would being a senior make you? Because from reading this I'm guessing you're between 12-15?

My son.. You didn't get grounded for trying to play destiny at 3am. You got grounded because you got caught trying to play destiny at 3am. A valuable lesson learned

There's probably a reason why you're a senior with decent grades. It's your mom. Respect her. Do what she says and stop playing your game in the middle of the night.
-
Just say "look women I could be out doing drugs and gang banging girls but instead I like to play Destiny" make her see that there are a million other things you could be doing that are way worse than playing a video game...and staying out of trouble.

1 ReplyShe should just take the console. Why are you disobedient? Why do you wake up at 3 to play? Addicted.

4 RepliesEdited by Skywalker: 10/19/2015 3:51:03 PMSteal your moms phone. Change your phone number in your mom's phone to "Tim H" and send texts to her about how you can't wait to see her again. And how you can't believe how tight she is. Then show it to your dad. Delete it right away, then when your parents get divorced. Live with your dad and play destiny all day everyday while he's passed out drunk from depression of the divorce.

She's your mom. Stop being a little -blam!- and listen to her if she asks you to do something. You can play it the next day the game isn't going anywhere

I did this everyday in high school 😂 itll pass

Destiny isn't worth that lol. I would've waited until friday if I were you.

Hahah damn this took me back to my high school years. Mom wouldn't let me play in between week days either, until one faithful day I said -blam!- it and started playing every fukn day...I regret nothing, except maybe my grades.

2 RepliesEdited by DaysOfRage: 10/19/2015 3:40:24 PMPeople still ground kids? About as useless as tits on a boarhog. Dont sweat it kid, parents who ground kids as a teaching tool are usually not in very good control of their own lives, professional or otherwise. So they use power over kids as a self-esteem booster or therapy. Nuttin' u can do about dat, jack. Play on!

Dude it wasn't worth it. All you are doing is hurting your moms trust in you for what a few hours on a game. Follow the rules while you are in her house then when you graduate and get a job and pay some bills you will understand. Destiny isn't life and your mom probably sacrificed a lot for you to have you disobey her wishes is a slap in the face man.
