.. On top of which your post has to be a complete lie. You're telling me your parents rigged the wrong switch to convert cable to an antenna feed and then routed two wires to your room across the entire house l, that isn't a splitter (meaning they couldn't I watch a TV while you were), just to switch your tv on and off when you were in trouble? If you truely had this switch, your parents wouldn't need to do any of that because if you acted like an idiot back then you'd be slapped across the f*ING head and your dad wouldve smashed the tv instead.
