General news about Frederik, Mary and Family 3: August - November 2008

[ashelen]

yes, i love the photos!! it must be hard to leave the kids so long1

[Paty]

Sorry I didnt kown it. I deleted it

[ricarda]

This article is old - and untrue - news, it was written on 13 August and it's content has already ben discussed at length. See the first pages of this thread.

[Empress]

Well, I tend to chalk that up to growing with the times. Media simply wasn't as pervasive in those days. There were no online publications. Pictures did not travel at the speed that they do now, and the amount of other non serious publications were negligible when Frederik was a child, never mind when Margrethe was a child. Again, two totally different situations that you can not compare. Apples and Oranges.

[Angeline]

Is there a list somewhere of charities she is partoness of ? Thx.

[JessRulz]

Hi Angeline, we have a thread for that lists both Frederik and Mary's patronages here at TRF, which can be found here. Or alternatively, you can check out their official website; here for Frederik, here for Mary; which gives a short description of each patronage

I love that Huggies put this photo on their website! Great advertising for their product.

[biboquinhas]

well put that photo on their adversite web site it was a rude thing to do, Huggies should't be alloud to do that sort of free publitcity with Mary And one more thing, does Christian use nappies???? My son who is around his age doesn't use nappies anymnore even during the night (but I think it depends of course...)Although I think he is old enought not to use nappies anymore

[lumutqueen]

I think your right.
I have a neice who is the same age as christian and she was out of nappers a while ago. Maybe the nappies were for Isabella???
Does anyone have any idea of when the couple will be back in Denmark???

You never no hehe :)
If the nappies were for Christian then Mary needs to get her son potty trained soon. Denamrk can't have a future king in nappies as a teenager can we

Every child is different. My doctor used to tell me, not to worry, no child started school at the age of 5 in diapers -- so I stopped worrying about training when they were 18 months and they were trained when they were ready. Not one of life's big catastrophes. My sister-in-laws used to try and out due each other on when their children were completely trained and the poor young ones were always being compared.

[biboquinhas]

Well I think I recall to see during this trip Christian with nappies during the day - on a day in the park, but maybe I'am wrong...

I to would prefere Christian to be out of his nappies before becomming a teenager. At that age he will be a rolemodel for all other teenagers i DK. The idea of all teenagers using nappies is rater dreadful

[marfre]

I dont think there is any set rule as to when a child should be out of nappies my nephew was 3 and a half before he was completely finished with nappies, his sister just over two. He was just too busy always on the move, so it took him a little longer. I think Denmark need not worry, Christian is just to cute for words anyway.

A word of wisdom in season.

Here is everyone going off on a tear about when or even if children should be toilet trained and you just go and lob a logic grenade.
