Another wrote: 'My 4 year old is like this. Makes me feel less alone!'
Meanwhile, others sympathised, saying they wouldn't like to be in Kate's position, with one writing: 'God, it puts me into a cold sweat thinking about having to try to defuse a grumpy/overstimulated 4yo in front of a massive audience!'
Another agreed, writing: 'Imagine having your parenting skills on display to the whole world with a recalcitrant 4yo...(not for all the money….)'

One said: 'It was a very long time for a 4 year old to sit still. I thought she managed him very well and it was so sweet seeing him sit on Prince Charles' lap. They obviously have a very close relationship.'
Meanwhile, another wrote: 'Would you believe it, a four year old acting like a four year old! I always feel bad for people when their little ones are acting up in public and try to give them a smile of solidarity.
He stole the limelight on Thursday after delighting crowds as he stood chatting to the Queen - and Prince Louis showed off his star power again on Sunday while watching the Platinum Jubilee Pageant in London
The prince pulled more than a few faces as he watched the pageant from the Royal box with his mother, the Duchess of Cambridge
Sticking out his tongue! The four-year-old showcased several amusing expressions as he sat next to his mother, the Duchess of Cambridge, in the royal box during the fourth day of Platinum Jubilee celebrations
At times, he was seen clenching his fists, sticking out his tongue, waving his arms in the air, putting his hands over his mother's mouth and standing in his seat for a better view of the spectacle
He later moved across to his other relatives and sat on his grandfather Prince Charles' lap, who pointed out various interesting parts of the parade to try and keep the four-year-old entertained
'I'm not surprised he was bored and fidgety, it was very very long and boring at times and four year olds aren’t made to sit still for hours.'
A third simply wrote: 'I thought Louis did really well considering he is only four years old.'
Others praised the duchess for getting through the long day, with one Mumsnetter writing: 'Well done Kate! You deserve a day in bed yourself tomorrow.'
Another added: 'What this weekend really shows is that K&W do a lot of parenting and don't leave it all to the nanny (nannies?). They both look like confident parents who know what works with the kids when out in public.'
Meanwhile, a third wrote: 'I think Catherine dealt really well with her 4 year old. Charlotte and George behaved extremely well over the four days.'
