The Parenting Trick From Kate And William You Need To Know

Every parent, including Kate and William, needs an ace in the hole when it comes to their children, and every child is different.

Here’s how Prince William and Kate Middleton parent their kids.

Parents learn on the job, and royal moms and dads are no different. Prince William and Kate Middleton rely on these surprising parenting tricks that some of you might want to take note of. Their first tip is certainly a sign of the times and a change in royal norms…

There’s no doubt that the British royals lived a lavish life, adhered to several rules and etiquettes and had to conduct themselves a certain way to look appropriate. But when it comes to parenting, royal parents are no different from the masses. They too have to deal with temper tantrums, have had their own pregnancy struggles and most importantly, have to continuously juggle work and family. However, it is commendable how they do it with extreme calm and composure.

Take the Prince and Princess of Wales for instance. Both Prince William and Kate Middleton have inspired many when it comes to parenting. Despite having their hands full with three kids, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis they have managed to raise disciplined and lovely kids. That said, here’s a look at some of the tricks the royal couple use to keep their children happy and in order.

Letting kids be kids: It has been a delight to watch royal kids grow up. What’s beautiful is that irrespective of how they behave, they’re allowed to be who they are. We’ve seen Prince George acting cheeky in public places, and we’ve witnessed Prince Louis throwing a tantrum, but that’s just kids being kids. It’s wonderful how the royals handle the kids, without stopping them from having some fun.

Being a royal does not mean no fun and games: Over the years, royal parenting has changed dramatically. Now, more than order, discipline and restrictions, it is more about making kids feel normal, happy and excited. They’re encouraged to be themselves, have fun, be spontaneous and are given the option to choose their way, but at the same time, they’re also aware of their social responsibilities, the royal etiquettes and their duties.

Royal kids are allowed some screen time: Interestingly, royal children are also allowed some screen time, but it’s of course well-regulated. In an interview with Radio 1, Prince William revealed that his eldest son is a big fan of Peppa Pig and makes everyone watch it together. In between the two parents, Kate is reportedly more strict when it comes to screen time. Royal expert Katie Nicholl once told OK! magazine, “Kate is usually very strict on screen time and keeps it to a minimum.” “The emphasis during this time will be on arts and crafts, painting and doing things that aren’t screen-orientated,” she adds.

‘Chat sofa’ over ‘naughty step’ to discipline their kids: It was reported that Prince William and Kate Middleton are no fans of ‘naughty step’, a disciplinary tactic that has the child sit on a designated step in the house in silence, for one minute for every year. As opposed to this method, the royals are said to opt for ‘chat sofa’, wherein the misbehaving child is taken away from the point of misbehaviour and talked to by any of the parents. This does not involve yelling, just plain communication, where the problem is addressed and the consequences are listed.

The Princess of Wales’ code words and gestures: Hand gestures, body movements and code words seem to work great for the royal parents. During Pippa Middleton’s wedding in 2017, Prince George was seen acting a bit cheeky and out of his element. It is when Kate intervenes and softly touches him on the head as a way of telling him to behave.

In addition, according to The Sun, Kate Middleton uses a simple code word to calm her kids down and it’s, “Let’s take a break”. When the royal parent says or signals it’s time for a break, children automatically know that they need to calm down and start behaving.
