Children are often punished by their parents by not allowing them to go out.

In English, we call this action _grounding_ and the child is _grounded_.

Is this a similar punishment in Japan? And what is it called?

In Japanese, we call that [外出禁止]{がいしゅつきんし}.

No. In Japan parents often punish their (usually young) children by locking
them out of the house.
