Kate and William’s ‘clever parenting techniques’ to keep children ‘in line’

Throughout King Charles III’s Coronation weekend, Kate, Princess of Wales and Prince William’s three children; Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis joined them on several occasions.

Body language expert Judi James looked at how the family interacted and the possible parenting methods the royal couple used.

She said: “William, Kate and their children are now moving like one well-oiled team of five, with both parents stepping back and enjoying a more hands-off approach.”

According to Judi, both William and Kate have a “mini-me in George and Charlotte”.

She said the two eldest Wales’ children “subliminally mirror their parents” and in turn, this suggests “an element of hero-worship, in that they want to be like them”.

Both children are also “looking out for each other” and their younger brother Louis.

Royals fans first saw a glimpse of this when Charlotte and Louis arrived at Westminster Abbey holding hands.

Judi said Charlotte “led him during the procession before calmly peeling off to follow her parents to the pews without any cues needed”.

Then, at the Coronation concert on Sunday night, “Charlotte [was] urging George wave his flag – but also asking him about her bracelet” before turning to Kate to get her to fix it.

The expert added: “One key word to describe the message that is growing from Kate and William’s parenting signals over the Coronation is trust.”

She noted how the parents “watched [their children] with a calm, quiet pride” throughout the weekend.

On the balcony, Louis “used signals of playful impatience”, drumming his hands before turning and engaging with George over the fly-past.

There was no “correcting” or “keeping them [the children] in line”, Judi noticed, instead they “allowed them to act like children now and again”.

Kate, in particular, “kept a very subtly eye on Louis” by “offering him motivational ‘reward’ touches of affection if he did something right”.

There were no signs from Kate or William of “catastrophising or over-dramatising”, Judi said.

The royal couple also “showed signals of confidence in their children” when they all attended the Big Help Out on Monday.

She said “all three children threw themselves” into the event and the parents “watched their children subtly and without fuss or signs of pre-emptive telling-off”.

Charlotte and Louis, in particular, “enjoyed themselves” when attempting archery with “total absorption and determination” which is exactly how Kate and William act when they partake in anything sporty or competitive at public engagements.

Louis also displayed “little dances of pure joy at the food on offer showed how much his spontaneous side is being encouraged”, the expert suggested.

She concluded: “William and Kate showed they clearly understand the need for all their children to learn to enjoy royal events rather than to dread them by seeing them as a chore, bore, or challenge to get through.

“It’s a huge step up in terms of royal parenting, and the consistent signs the children were having fun and enjoying themselves is their reward.”
