Don't all children have their moments?
When will Prince William will leave employment in emergency helicopters and will devote more to royal duties?
He signed a two year contract with Bond Air Services which supplies the pilots to the air ambulance charity. So unless something major happens like the Queen dying, he is there for 2 years as a minimum.

In that case, would he have some contract clauses, or would he be able to just leave the job?
I would be very surprised if there wasn't a clause. I mean.. I think it's kind of the only way to do it in this situation. Obviously he will have to work until they have a replacement but maybe shorter than others would have to.In that case, would he have some contract clauses, or would he be able to just leave the job?

There is no doubt a clause in his contract that takes the succession into account.
His contract already allows for royal engagements
I read on the net, people in the UK are not very happy with Prince William's work at the Royal House. Is true? It still continues to be popular?
Both Will and Kate work very well together as a team and I don't think either one of them really needs or wants to grab the limelight but get on with what they're doing and their main focus is on what they're trying to support and bring attention to. Although it may seem like Kate is not overly fond of making public speeches, the ones that she has done were done pretty well.
Bullying has been an interest of both Will and Kate and since the organization that they picked for their wedding donations has closed, I'm happy to see that once again this is to be a cause that they'll be behind.
As far as Will as a child, preschool is usually the time a child transitions from their intimate "me" stage with their immediate family as the main influences to the "us" social strata of a group setting and interactions. Its at this age I believe that children should be guided to accept each person as they are and learn to respect them.

Is true?
The most recent YouGov polls place William and Harry at the top of the "Who is your favorite royal family member?" QEII and Kate are next in the poll.
No, it's not true. The big majority don't even care about it, and most people in the UK are very happy with William's work for the monarchy.
Yougov asked this questions in april.
Last year Prince William began training for a new job as an air ambulance pilot. Do you think he should continue working as a pilot, or should he concentrate full time upon his Royal duties?
He should concentrate full time upon his Royal duties? 10% agreed.
He should combine his Royal duties with his job as a pilot? 76% agreed.
Don't know? 14%.
I agree. This way they will have "real work" in their portfolio. I think that is what's missing with alot of politicians (and teachers for that matter) , they never worked as anything else before so they are not really familiar with the world outside politics/teaching. This way William and Harry have a totally new understanding of working life than earlier royals. They might not know how it is to not be able to pay the bills. But they know how it is to take orders, to work, to sit on your coffebreak with your microwave food etc. I think that will be very valueble. And I also think it will be a good PR point in the future. Just like pulling the "The queen worked as a mechanic in the war"-card earns alot of points nowdays so will "King William used to fly rescue helicopters".William's numbers almost parallel Harry's numbers. When Harry left the army almost 80 percent of people polled said he should get another job in addition to his royal stuff. Its clear the public's concept of what it is to be a royal is changing.
10 percent of people think William should only focus on 'royal duties'. Now I think we can safely assume that if the public doesn't think William should only be doing royal duties then Kate should be allowed to be a 'mum' in addition to being royal.
William said in his interview with the BBC 'What does being a full-time royal even mean nowadays' when asked about it. He knows the public expect 'modern' royals to have a life other than cutting ribbons and attending state banquets. Although this is very important and increasing will become the focus.
The newspapers obsess but William and Harry are way out in front on this.
Harry in NZ said he and William need 'regular' jobs to stay grounded. To keep in touch with the people they serve. It seems the public agrees.
Now no doubt the time will come in the reign of their father where both boys will be needed more. And the Queen and Charles have a firm grasp on what is important for William right now.
He's checking all the boxes. Duchy of Cornwall, got it covered. Oversees foreign tours, got it covered. Doing investitures, got it covered. Receiving ambassadors, got it covered. Holding done a job in addition to royal duties, got it covered.
I think she finds it hard to inject her personality into her speeches. Making speeches isn't easy, but she'll only get better if she do more of them. I think the one she did at her old school (just before it was announced she was pregnant with George) was her best.
I think within two years, the Cambridge's main focus will be on official royal duties. William has even said that he knows what's around the corner, and the doors of him having an outside job is closing.
It could be next week and it could be 5 years from now. No one really knows. The main thing is that none of it will come as a big surprise and the Cambridges will be prepared and ready to do whatever is required of them when the time does come.
The Queen Mother did not "work 'til she dropped". She gave up 99% well before.
I don't think the Cambridge's will wait until someone get sick and pass on. They will focus on royal duties in the need to help The Queen, who's entering her 90's, and Prince Philip, who's in his mid 90's.
Also, their family life will not be affected. The royals aren't on the royal stage 24/7. They will always have a private life, just like other members of the family have.
