Prince George, Louis, Princess Charlotte under parental guidance

Prince William and Kate Middleton keep their children on a safe distance from things that are unhealthy for their mental and physical well-being.

Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis’s childhood is mostly free of electronic gadgets.

In an interview, Prince of Wales shared that they are strict about not allowing their kids to have phones. "We sit and chat, it's really important. None of our children have any phones, which we're very strict about," he said.

The royal parents encourage their children to engage in outdoor activities and sports instead.

Prince Louis, 7, is particularly fond of trampolining, while Charlotte, 10, enjoys netball and ballet.

Their eldest, 12-year-old George, loves playing football and hockey. Prince William believes that keeping them busy with sports and being outdoors is essential for their development.

He also opened up about how his parents' divorce in 1992 has shaped his approach to parenting. He stressed the importance of creating a happy, healthy, and stable home environment for his children, ensuring they feel safe, secure, and loved.

"For me, the most important thing in my life is family, and everything is about the future and about if you don't start the children off now with a happy, healthy, stable home, I feel you're setting them up for a bit of a hard time and a fall," he said.

While senior members of the royal family are thought to use mobile phones, they are rarely seen using them in public. Prince William has expressed concerns about the impact of excessive screen time on young people, drawing from his own experiences as a father.

"The grown-ups are guilty of it too. We have got to be better at it, our phones, too. We spend ages on our phones," he said during a visit to OnSide Youth Zone in London.
