Earlier this month, Michelle acknowledged that she used to use her children’s lives “as an excuse for why [she] couldn’t do something” and admitted it was “wrong.”
She said she’s now finally at a point in her life where she can put her needs first and make choices for herself.
“...This year, people couldn’t even fathom that I was making a choice for myself. They had to assume that my husband and I are divorcing,” Michelle told host and One Tree Hill star Sophia Bush on the Work in Progress podcast.
“This couldn’t be a grown woman just making a set of decisions herself, right? But that’s what society does to us,” she added.

Michella Obama revealed this week that she used to spank her daughters when they were kids
“It took a couple of spankings for me to be like, yeah, you know what?” she said during a recent episode of her Michelle Obama: The Light Podcast with her brother, Craig Robinson and guests Damon and Marlon Wayans.
She said she felt “silly” for resorting to spankings to discipline her daughters.

“I felt like, you know, this is a little kid and the fact that I can’t think of any better way to get my point across than to smack somebody on the butt—I felt embarrassed,” she added.

It was “a lot of work” to raise them as first daughters, and it only got “harder” as they grew older, Michelle shared on SiriusXM's Let’sTalk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa podcast this week.
“They had to drive and they had to go to prom and they were on teams and they traveled to other schools and they had to do college searches,” she said, “and they went to parties and they had drinks, and they tried out smoking and they did all the things.”
The mother-of-two said her daughters are still paying the “Obama tax” even though their years in the White House are long behind them
The former first lady also admitted that parents have to work “twice as hard” to make their kids have normal lives when they are “under the security of the Secret Service.”
Every weekend used to be a “nightmare” to ensure they didn’t “wind up on Page Six” for simply “being regular teenagers,” the Light We Carry author said.

Now that her daughters are older, Michelle said they still cannot escape the public’s gaze completely.
“We call that the Obama tax for them,” Michelle quipped. “You'll have it the rest of your life, but you also have a lot of benefits.”
