Yes. Whether parent or step-parent, they can ground you and it is not illegal. If you feel there is an injustice, talk about it calmly and make a good case for why it is unfair. But a step-parent in your life has the right to help you become a good person, and grounding is usually a punishment for something that was done that was wrong.
