Kate Middleton is getting compliments for her knowledge of parenting. The Duchess of Cambridge is said to have been interested in the topic even before she became a parent. Now, after three children, Prince George of Cambridge, 6, Princess Charlotte of Cambridge, 4, and Prince Louis of Cambridge, 1, with husband Prince William, and with years spent researching, Kate is considered an expert in this field. Through the years, she has been practicing on her children what she has learned.
Modern Parenting Style
Kate and Prince William are practicing modern-day parenting style. They take the importance of mental health highly for their three children. Even though the Cambridge couple is very strict at home, they are very hands-on with George, Charlotte, and Louis.
An expert in parenting, Martina Mercer, told the Express that Kate's parenting style is described as "modern". She said that it is obvious that Kate has researched a lot on how to bring up kids in today's society.
Kate Middleton's Hard Work
Kate became labeled as an expert after extensive research, having three children, and being a champion of causes that have to do with children and their development. A source told The Telegraph that child psychologists and people who study the early development of children want to hear Kate's thoughts on what they have to do with children because of her expertise.
Besides being drawn to children's development, Kate also wants to do more research on the subject.
The source said that Kate not only wants to talk about the issue, but she also wants to build an evidence-based action. Also, the source said that Kate has quietly worked and became an expert in the field.
They said that it is natural that people would want to hear more from her because she understands the science, and she is now respected because of all the work she has spent all these years.
Kate bravely speaks about parenting and motherhood. She was invited to guest in a podcast entitled "Happy Mum, Happy Baby", where she spoke about the elements of motherhood that she practices at home, and also about feeling mom guilt, to host Giovanna Fletcher.
Kate Middleton Uses Code Words
The 38-year-old mom uses code words when her kids are acting up inside or outside the palace. When the three kids are misbehaving, Kate says a phrase for them to calm down.
Kate's "punishment" to her kids is to tell them to "take a break" instead of putting them in a timeout. This method helps the child to calm down without shouting at them.
Kate Middleton Way of Talking With Kids
Kate gets down on her kids' level to see them eye-to-eye when talking to them, instead of bringing them to her level. There were many instances when she was seen doing this not only to her children but also to other kids as well. Anne Hathaway, an Academy Award-winning actress, also started doing the same after seeing the Duchess of Cambridge does it.
