Kelly Clarkson has talked about how she taught her kids right from wrong.
The mother of two said in an interview that she will spank her kids if they
don’t act right.
She says that in her home state of Louisiana, where she lives, this is a
common thing to do.
Clarkson is from Fort Worth, Texas. She has two kids, River Rose, 5, and
Remy, 3, as well as two stepchildren from her first marriage to Brandon
Blackstock. When asked how she disciplined her children, she said, “I’m
not above a spanking,” which some people don’t like. And she doesn’t mean
a hard beating, just a swat on the behind.
he then explains why she acts the way she does by saying that her parents
spanked her and she did well in life, so she is happy with herself. She went
on to say that before she does anything, she always gets a warning.
The Voice coach went on to say that she is from the South, where spanking
is common.
She does say, though, that it can be hard to do in public because people who
don’t agree are quick to judge.
People have debated about whether or not spanking is a good way to
punish over a long period of time. Some people think it’s safe, while others
think it’s dangerous.
