Kelly Clarkson recently revealed her biggest parenting pet peeve and the entire situation is of her control.
The "Stronger" songstress opened up about her children's school in the latest episode of iHeartRadio's Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce, remarking on how frustrating it is when performances are scheduled during busy times.
"I don’t know when the school systems thought it would be a good plan for families and their emotional stability to start having performances at 10 a.m. during the week. A lot of [parents] work."
The star, who shares River, 10, and Remington, 8, with ex-husband Brandon Blackstock (per Page Six), continued, highlighting the inability of most parents to leave work in the middle of the day to attend their child's school performances.
"A lot of jobs wouldn’t let you do that anyway, but even if you’re, like, the boss and you would have that control, our kids don’t understand." Clarkson said she feels like an "a-hole" when she is unable to show up for her children.
"Then [my kids] go, 'Why was this mom there?' And then you have to say, 'Because that kid’s got a better mom.'"
The "Since U Been Gone" standout recently returned to her eponymous talk show after being absent for most of March due to undisclosed personal matters. She returned for the 1000 episode last week but did not unveil why she disappeared for so long.
