Did anybody who is advocating that William succeed his grandmother instead of his father stop and think that you are robbing William of his young life in insisiting on this?
In 10-15 years if William succeeds his grandmother he will hopefully be a young married man with a young family. You would want him to be spending tons of time away from his family carrying on royal duties within Great Britain and abroad? Not to mention the temendous pressure that will likely be bestowed upon his wife as the media wonders if she is the next Diana or not, and as she would be Queen she would be taken away from her young children just as much. Is that fair to her and William's marriage or their children?
I think about all that the present Queen's children have said about how she was away from them a lot and that they spent a lot more time with their nanny/governness than with her. And how much the children suffered as a result of this, with the Queen showing very little affection or attention to her children because she was so busy. Would we want that same fate to befall William's children?
If you truly had a vested interest in William, you would want his father to rule for a long time if only so that William could spend more time with his young family and making his marriage strong and building a foundationg of mutual support with his wife before succeeding to the throne.
