Kelly Clarkson admits that she is not above spanking her children if they misbehave, although she emphasizes that it's not to hurt them. The 41-year-old Grammy winner believes that spanking "really helped" discipline her daughter during her early years. She shares her two children with her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock. Kelly stresses that she doesn't randomly spank her children and warns them about the consequences of their actions. Despite controversy surrounding spanking, it remains legal in some parts of the US. In Wales, all forms of physical punishment are illegal. Kelly is known for being open about her life as a mother and has discussed the heartbreak her children faced following her divorce from their father.
