why do people care if Kate Middleton wants to be a SAHM?

Way, way more than William and Kate.

And the Queen's children were mostly raised by nannies while she traveled the world carrying out royal duties. Times are changing, parenting
practices are different now. Three of Elizabeth's children are divorced. William may just be prioritizing a happier family life for himself.

1. Will and Kate also have at least one nanny (nanny Maria) and a full household staff. Additionally, George and Charlotte go to preschool
2. You are assuming that Kate is spending her time not working taking care of her children but you have no idea what she is doing.

Neither do you! Why are you assuming the worst about her, instead of the best?

DP. So.odd how invested you are in what is a totally crafted public image.

Maybe there's a lack of closeness with George or Charlotte that she attributes to not being there as much in the early months? Who knows. I don't think we're personally affected by how much she does or doesn't work.

She was also the reigning monarch. There's an enormous difference between being the reigning monarch, and being the person married to the second person in line to be the reigning monarch. Kate has much more freedom to make these choices than Elizabeth did when he third child was born.

My guess is that Kate enjoyed her time with George and Charlotte when they were young, and sees an opportunity with the world focused on Meghan to get a little more of that time.

I worked full time when my kid was young because I didn't have a choice. I didn't see any lack of closeness with my kid, but I loved being with him, and if I'd had the opportunity to work less and have more time with him, while still drawing the same salary, I'd have grabbed it. I don't see why it's surprising that Kate is doing the same thing.

This has been explained multiple times. I doubt anyone begrudges her a couple months of parental leave. It's that she does the bare minimum (if that) when she's not on maternity leave.

And you care because....??? Oh, right. Because you can't do the same thing and it just kills you when other can (and do).

DP who has posted about how there is a perception that Kate and Will are benefitting off the British public. My kids are now older and I was a SAHM by choice and a WOHM by choice for part of it. Unlike a lot of posters in this thread, I can acknowledge a public conversation that is happening about public figures without getting into a panicked tizzy that this somehow is a reflection on my own life.

I also have no idea how any of you know Kate is such an amazing mother. Don't you know anything about media management? What you see is carefully cultivated. We will see how their kids act on their own in 15-20 years. Until then, we only have a carefully crafted public image to work with.

Yes, we will see. Just as we've seen what great young men William and Harry are. They've attributed their characters many times to the way their mother raised them. I have no doubt William and Kate are raising their own kids in a similar fashion, so more power to them.

Huh. My impression of Harry and Will has not been that so great. You think dressing up like a Nazi is good behavior? You have low standards.

You've never done anything stupid in your college years/youth? I certainly have. I've done things that I've later been mortified about and deeply regretted. I would say for someone who lost his beloved mother at a very impressionable age, and then suffered terrible depression, he's done a remarkable job of growing into a fine man.

I can categorically state that I have not done anything as mean and offensive as dressing up like a Nazi. I have higher standards and expectations for my behavior. If you think their behavior over the years is NBD, I see that you have low standards.

You mean the fashion of having a work ethic? Doing 500 events in one year? Setting an example?

William and Harry are well-known for being the kind, charismatic, somewhat dutiful men they are because the examples set for them by Diana and Charles (both hard workers and empathetic people who cared for more than just ordering clothes and shoes) was clear.

It's not clear why you hate Kate Middleton so very much, but it's very clear you have extremely odd reasons for doing so. She's a mother of three small children, who obviously takes great pleasure in raising them - just as Diana did. Just because she doesn't have as many engagements as you would like at this moment in time, doesn't mean that she won't in the future, when her children are older. And she still does plenty of appearances and engagements. I think she's admired because she is *also* kind, charismatic, and empathetic - AND puts her family first. She's a good role model.

There is a video online of Kate recently attending some event at an OB college.

As she is walking through the roped off tunnel of greaters, she noticed one of the midwives who helped deliver one of our kids.

Kate did a double take, ran over and hugged the woman, and very warmly smiled and chatted with her for a few minutes

It was such a warm and natural spontaneous display of normalcy and kindness.

Kate looked like a wonderfully friendly, gracious and very happy person in that shot.

You are an idiot. And a prissy pearl-clutcher, to boot. He's apologized for that serious lapse in judgment. But sure, make his character all about that ONE incident.

Right back atcha. I'd rather assume the best about someone, rather than the absolute worst - especially if there's no reason to believe the bad and every reason to believe the good. YMMV.

Oh please. It's not like that was one single isolated incident. Bizarre how highly you think of those two.

Never said I did. I do however know a few things about how time works....so if George and Charlotte go to preschool (which it appears that William takes them to) for hours a day and Kate doesn’t have to cook or clean I think I can wonder what she was doing before Louis was born. Oh and also...in addition to her children literally not being at home William barely does more than she does...also freeing up more time.

I think you need to write a strongly worded letter to the both of them; they need to hear your disapproval of their life choices! Because once they know how closely you've been monitoring their private life, I know they'll be mortified. I'm sure they'll think twice about having let you down. Do it soon! Before Kate dares to take too much time at home with her baby!!!

DP. It is not oddly invested to note there is a public discussion about a public figure. Freaking out about the existence of that public discussion is indeed oddly defensive, however.

Ah, well. The UK can decide what it wants. I am glad it's not my tax dollars going to support their shenanigans, but since it's not, I can just watch the nonsense from afar.

Never said I did. I do however know a few things about how time works....so if George and Charlotte go to preschool (which it appears that William takes them to) for hours a day and Kate doesn’t have to cook or clean I think I can wonder what she was doing before Louis was born. Oh and also...in addition to her children literally not being at home William barely does more than she does...also freeing up more time.

I think you need to write a strongly worded letter to the both of them; they need to hear your disapproval of their life choices! Because once they know how closely you've been monitoring their private life, I know they'll be mortified. I'm sure they'll think twice about having let you down. Do it soon! Before Kate dares to take too much time at home with her baby!!!

Lol. DP here and I second this. Stop wasting time here and send that letter! Kate must hearken your sage warning or see the monarchy crumble! How very dare you, Kate!
