When it comes to parenting Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9 and Prince Louis, 6, Prince William and Princess Kate seem to have mastered the art of discipline without drama. Forget the traditional "naughty step," because in the Wales household, misbehaving royals are reportedly directed to a "chat sofa"—and one behavior is deemed absolutely unacceptable at any time.
A source told the Sun's Fabulous magazine that the couple aren't fans of a "naughty step, but there is a chat sofa." The insider added, "The naughty child is taken away from the scene of the row or disruption and talked to calmly by either Kate or William. Things are explained and consequences outlined and they never shout at them."
