A mother caught her son using his phone after his bedtime, something that is against the rules in her household. Seeing as though he chose to go against that rule, she grounded him. In order for him to end his punishment, he had to earn points.

500 whole points.

However, he could choose how to do it. This mom created a pretty creative list containing a variety of household chores, each with a point value.

Here’s what his mother wrote:

"Congratulations!
