Spare The Rod: Celebs Who Do Not Spank Their Children
Kirstie Alley
Kirstie Alley has been very vocal about her stance on spanking. Growing up, the “Cheers” star had been disciplined by her mother who would whack her with a wooden hairbrush. Because of this, Alley was adamant about not raising a hand to her own children. She likened spanking to child abuse and let her twitter followers know how she really felt: “I have amazing children. I wouldn’t dream of solving ANY situation with them by swatting or spanking them … I was POPPED a lot … doesn’t work.”
