Obama said she spanked Malia and Sasha — now 26 and 23 — a few times before she felt that it wasn’t an effective way to discipline them, and the punishment made her feel “embarrassed” as a parent.
“I felt silly,” she said in a candid conversation with Damon and Marlon Wayans about corporal punishment on Wednesday’s episode of her IMO podcast with her brother Craig Robinson.

The proper response is, “this hurts me more than it hurts you.”

Exactly. Who cares anything about these liars and grifters? That fat pig had a show that could reach millions. She had maybe a dozen listeners? Not even the rats care about that horrid, horrid family.

The girls are not “Michelle Obama’s” children. They are borrowed props from a family in Chicago.

She never had any children to spank in the first place. They were children on loan, period.
