DP. They are quite open with the fact that they have a nanny and that the older children are in preschool. And you are delusional if you don’t think the boys will be off at Eton when they are of age. That said you can’t “focus on raising kids” and then get jealous when people make other choices. |
Lol Or vice versa. The first post in this thread congratulates H&M for doing a great job raising children, while criticizing W&K for not doing that. Somehow. |
I'm the PP who said they Cambridge fan is a loon. I stand by that. I think they are part of the wider group who also doubt Meghan is pregnant. They seem to talk about "moonbump' a lot. Here's an article today about them: https://www.thedailybeast.com/the-bizarre-cult-of-meghan-markle-pregnancy-truthers?ref=home |
They have one nanny for 3 kids. Queen Elizabeth had multiple nannies in her day. Kids are a lot of work. Even if Kate and Will are working "part time", it's a full time job with 3 kids that are that small. |
2/3 kids are in school for most of the day. Louis is with the nanny for the rest. They have private chefs, cleaners, drivers, and tutors for the kids. What's this about 'job'? |
What's your source that they're in school for "most of the day"? I presume that even if they attend 8-2, that leaves plenty of waking hours. What's your source that Louis is with the nanny for most of the day? |
Are you a parent? Just asking. |
Are you familiar with preschool? It's not "most of the day". |
Umm, it is 'most' of the day when most parents are working 9-5 jobs and getting home at 6. If their children are getting home at 2 with no responsibilities from Will/Kate as far as making extra housework is done or their job responsibilities are taken care, I'd say they've got it pretty good. |
You must not have children. No offense given because it’s a valid choice. Still: -school holidays and vacations. Weekends. Sick days -one not in school -when they do have duties or preparation to attend to -supplemental and careful education K&W are responsible for: how to reign as monarch. (But also how to not interfere). Dangers of social media (moreso than any other average kid). Morals and ethics that must be drilled in but not forced so hard that they rebel. Balance of humility and pride. Balance of confidence, standing up for yourself and others but not bullying. Love and joy but restraint. History of their family and the world. And the list goes on and on. A lot of these things are what we all feel the weight of as parents. However, they must feel so much more pressure to turn out a good kid. I can give my kids all of these lessons, and if she still someday choose to be a lifelong crack addict, that’s on her. I’ve done my job and it will hurt, but I did my best. They can’t have that lax view. Selection of important experiences and lessons. So yes, nannies would be very helpful as you sit down and organize that effort. I have three kids, and shock, on my low budget I still hire babysitters and trade play dates so i can get free time. |
What the actual hell? What are you saying? |
PP is just making stuff up, because she doesn't like Kate and wants to call her lazy. |
| I think Kate is happy to share the spotlight. She seems rather shy and any attention the press gives Meghan is less time Kate has to be in the spotlight. |
I agree and don't think Kate minds Meghan taking the spotlight. I, however, think Will is being grumpy about being overshadowed individually AND as a family unit. Kate seems easy-going and just wants to get out to her farmhouse. William is an obstinate and lazy b*stard. |
Eh. I just think William wants to get the media off of the Rose stuff (whatever it is, affair or something else). That's why the story about MI5 and 6 came out. I don't see William as behind the story about Meghan making Kate cry or texting at 5am or her NY baby shower. |
