It’s been previously reported that the royal mom-of-three wants her younger children, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, to go into non-royal professions when they grow up.
Royal Commentator Predicts The Future Of he Monarchy
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s eldest child, Prince George won’t be turning 18 until 2031, and while it’s still further in the future, the eyes of the public will be on him. His parents have mostly kept him and his younger siblings out of the public eye and have afforded them a normal and private life.
According to royal expert Daniela Elser, the Cambridge kids might not be given the same freedom as Harry, Meghan and their kids as a result of the dwindling and aging workforce.
When George becomes King, Elser predicts that demand on Princess Charlotte and Louis will increase. She went on to state that the thought of her children’s defined futures will be worrying Kate as a mother.
She said: “The pressure on them is going to be intense to help ensure the survival of the British monarchy, an institution which can be easily traced back to the ninth century.
“Imagine having the weight of more than 1,200 hundred years of history constantly on your shoulders. “It must be painful for Kate to know that while other kids look at the future with goggle-eyed wonder, her children’s paths look set in Portland stone.”

Daniela Elser Says No One Thought to Speculate How Megxit Will Affect the Cambridge Children
Elser continued by pointing out that Megxit would mean the Cambridge children would be hard-pressed to carry out more royal duties, whether they fancied it or not.
“One thing that has never been speculated about or reported on in any of the approximately 8,774,573,498 stories about Megxit are any concerns they might have had leaving the Royal family short-staffed.”
She went on to explain that the decision made by the Sussexes to depart from royal life would make it hard for Charlotte and Louis to “have the freedom to ever make a similar choice.”
“The only possible candidates to step in and help [George] carry the burden here are his siblings, meaning that like it or not, all three of the Cambridge children could very well be dragooned into working royal life whether they fancy the gig or not.
“That simple joy of imagining what you might be when you grow up is a privilege George, and very possibly Charlotte and Louis, will never really get.”

Keep in mind that Daniela Elser is merely a journalist. She has not quoted a word of these speculations and opinions as having come from Kate herself or from any other member of the Royal family.
As for whether Kate may actually have any opinion on her children's futures, we can gather what her thoughts might be from her own life. She has always wholeheartedly supported the Monarchy, and relished her own position and responsibilities in the Royal family. We can hardly imagine she would NOT wish her children to not have the same joys, privileges, and responsibilities.
Agree.
I see these articles as just a debate and to try to fathom whats going on with the Royals or anyone else who want to lead and have peoples support. So that being said my concerns with Kates children is the same as the situation with Harry. Its all very well to support your brother the king or sister the queen but once their own family expands the once much needed assistance of the sibling becomes somewhat redundant, and lets face it no one enjoys being made redundant if they would like to keep working or even do more. In short it inevitability ends with too many cooks in the kitchen. Something official should be put in place so as siblings don't have the lines blurred like Harry and his wife thinking they deserve a bigger bit of the pie. Its very unsettling for the people to have to endure unrest in the royal family, especially when focus should be on other more important matters.
