[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Charles is going to be terrible. It’s a shame because I think he is much more competent and intelligent than his sons. But his people skills are terrible and he has already gotten in trouble for being political with those letters mentioning Israel. [/quote]

How so?

The sons seem way more emotionally intelligent, socially skilled and articulate to me  in what ways do you think they they lack intelligence and competence?[/quote]

Charles is better educated, more intelligent, hardworking and shrewd businessman than his sons. You are right that he has little self awareness, but he is basically the poster boy for complex childhood trauma and attachment issues. There is a picture of his parents returning from an extended tour shaking little Charles hand, as the queen then goes on to embraces her mother. Heartbreaking and humiliating for a young boy to experience.

I think he will be an eccentric king and will do things his way.[/quote]

Ok thanks … so much of the lead royal job seems to be pageantry PR, social skills and appealing character  - William definitely seems better suited to it EQ wise.

To your point though, capacity for intellectual intelligence is allegedly passed down through the mother (according to science I have read). I wonder whether Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was markedly more intelligent than Princess Diana? That would be a wonder given royal inbreeding….

Diana was intelligent?[/quote]

I thought she had some kind of undiagnosed learning disorder and that's why she didn't do great in school???[/quote]

Much more is known about learning differences these days - they often come with great strengths outside the classroom (creativity, lateral thinking, out of the box problem solving but also greater difficulties with emotional regulation/ anxiety and depression). I think we saw that with Diana / highly sensitive but also gifted with connecting with people in deeply human ways). [/quote]

The Diana worship on this board is so odd.  I think she seemed like a really nice person and also one who genuinely liked and got along with kids and had good fashion sense.  I feel like the first of those two describes at least half of the women I know.  The fact that it was relatively unique in British royals is what is striking.  She was not smart and had bad judgment in a lot of ways.  That’s okay.  [/quote]
DP. Is it Diana worship to suggest that the Queen who Jackie O basically described as dumb isn’t any smarter than she was? I just see two dumb ladies but one that grew up in a loving home. [/quote]

Jackie Kennedy met Queen Elizabeth in 1961 and 1962.   In the 60 years since then, the Queen developed enough smarts to do an admirable job as Queen.  
Jackie married a man to pay her bills.
