Monarchies should skip a generation (so, go from grandparent to grandchild). That way you reliably get long periods of fresh blood, as opposed to transitioning from a 95 year old to a 70 year old.

(Alternatively, abdicate early Akihito-style)

Monarchs living long enough to have adult grandchildren is a pretty recent phenomenon.
