I thought he showed quite a lack of empathy to his brother. Like, could he really not understand the reaction to the wedding beard? It's so important to Harry but silly for William to be jealous of the same thing? There were so many scenes like this scattered throughout the book - Harry's emotions are proper and well contextualized but he failed to allow the other's emotions and humanity. [/b]

This is astute. I think this lack of empathy and myopic thinking reflects immature emotional development (which I don't really 'blame' him for) and is what is leading him to make some poor choices when it comes to his family and other public actions/words.[/quote]

Also no concern over his niece Charlotte when she cried over the dress at age 3.  No it was all about Meghan![/quote]

You mean when Meghan told Kate repeatedly the tailor was already there and waiting to alter the dress and Kate was demanding it be fully remade four days before the wedding?[/quote]

But did she ever express sadness that Charlotte cried?  Or was it all business...perhaps a little sympathy for a three year old wouldn't be that difficult![/quote]

The American wasn't being emotional enough for the Brit? What?[/quote]

You don't have to be overly emotional to say I'm sorry this upset Charlotte.  Remember harry found her "sobbing uncontrollably on the floor"  pretty emotional to me except only to their feelings.  Who cares about anyone else![/quote]

This whole story about Charlotte crying over the dress seems a little odd to me. For a three-year-old, a dress is pretty much a dress. She isn't thinking about what the paps will say about her ill-fitting dress. And if Kate had just said, "oh look, it's a little long, we'll get it hemmed" then the three-year-old would have been fine. Seems like there's something missing there?[/quote]

You must not know many 3 year Olds.  I didn't say she was upset about the paps..you did which is a very odd response.  You are still defending meghan over the fe elings over a 3 year old.  Plus Kate could have said that and Charlotte could have still be unhappy .   Were you there?  Meghan?  Harry?  No.[/quote]

I'm not a Meghan defender--this is my first post on this thread, or on the subject of Meghan or Kate EVER. I've read this topic brings out the crazies, and you proved the point. Also, learn to punctuate.

Yes, I know multiple three-year-old girls. And no, they don't care much about their dresses except if they love it if a dress involves lots of pink tulle and sparkles. Dress fit is pretty much irrelevant. My only point was that Charlotte was probably taking her cues from Kate...who was the one concerned about paps or something....[/quote]

Did you understand what I was trying to say?   I've noticed that when people critique silly things like spelling, punctuation then I realize they don't have a good reply.

This is DCUM not the Washington post or Harvard.

So, you have no reply to the substance, of which there was a fair amount. Got it. Bye, talking to you is a waste of time. [/quote]
