I recently watched "Victoria & Abdul". Queen Victoria was undoubtedly a formidable character and led a long and complex life, but I know from a number of sources that she didn't like her chidren, nor showed much of an interest in them until it came to interfering in their lives. Yet she was capable of loving her husband with a passion. It occurred to me that I could never have liked her as a person - whatever other redeeming eatures she might have - based solely on how she treated her kids. How can anyone be so unpleasant to the fruit of their own womb, even if they have had a prickly relationship with their own mother?
AIBU to on principle dislike people that treat their own children badly? Wtf was wrong wth her? The woman can't have had PND for over 60 years!
