Grounded for 1 and a half years

I'm 16 My dads an asbestos removal worker and my moms a Physical therapist. I spent a total of $7000 on gambling. I also sold their TVs yesterday and that's when the Visa bill came. My mom was still at work when my dad got his visa bill when my mom got home he told her what I did and they both agreed I would be grounded for a year and a half! I have to stay in my room all day expect for school I can't go anywhere except for errands which my parents know I hate going to. When they go to Cedar point in June they will hire a babysitter to watch me. And no books expect for school text books… Also they are taking Laptop ( using my brothers laptop ) no ps4 no Xbox one no tv ( they sold mine to buy 3 new TVs that I sold ( I sold my bros and sisters TV as well ) also no iPhone 6s and this summer starting May 17 when I'm done with school I have to get a job. To pay for the gambling I did. And any extra money i make they will take. And for 10months they are taking my mattress, pillows, and covers away. Also for 3months they are putting bars in my windows to make it like jail and so if I do it again I will know what will happen Why are my parents so stupid I shouldn't be grounded for this long. I should be grounded for a week at the most. How can I do this for a year and a half Please help!

A 16 year old can't legally gamble. How did you lose 7k illegally?
