Who are the young people that will help him? [[https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-65523802 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-65523802]] perhaps Edward’s children?

I'd heard about the incident during the cycle ride but not seen or heard it before. William has been described here as "screaming" during it (yes, on the RF boards; no, can't remember where or who).
I've often wondered what "screaming" meant on MN; seems to be a lot more placid than it sounds.

That reminds of that funny thread on MN by the woman who was wailing in the Sistine Chapel😂

Oh @derxa that was just a classic, so funny!

A poster pointed out that William's temper had been reported on a lot of times. This was disputed on here, with demands that they post links, and the implication was that the poster was lying. She could not be bothered to look up the many links and articles on the subject. Lots of posts dominated the thread on this subject. I gave you what you demanded.

As for William, he talked in an angry menacing way that is with a temper I would not want anyone projecting to me or in front of my dc.

He pointed a finger in MM's face at some point.

So, by the same token that he is 'mild' or 'calm', then so is Harry.

But to me 'mild' is when Diana was on that skiing trip and asked the paparazzi to respect her children's space.

William was assertive not aggressive. A big difference. He had a right to be annoyed - he was protecting his children. I think most parents can relate to that; it’s a protective instinct. I don’t think he would have got very far with the intrusive photographer being meek and mild. He was put in his place and quite rightly so.

I don’t know anyone who has never lost their temper at some breaking point, doesn’t make them “bad tempered” all the time. You could find something twist it, like the press do and it fits any scenario when your in the media spotlight but it doesn’t mean it’s fact. It feels to me like people are stretching for something negative to say.

What William did was not menacing. The paparazzi was stalking and taking photos of his children. Any decent parent would have reacted in a defensive manner when it comes to protecting their children from such violation of their privacy. And William’s reaction was fairly restrained even when he was angry.

As for pointing his finger at MM, that doesn't make him violent and abusive either. He was defending his wife, and also we don’t even know whether what Harry wrote was true because some of the stuff that was written in the memoir contradicted the truth.

Pointing a finger at someone or the anger that was shown in the video is nowhere even close to what Harry did. He literally pushed a photographer that caused him to cut his lip on his camera, and he also slapped his bodyguard and a musician on their faces. What harry did was violent, and definitely not mild or restrained. And I would say slapping their staff on the face is abusive behaviour. The fact that he, along with Meghan, have faced bullying complaints is also cause for concern.

there’s been reports of William having a temper and yet the one video proof of his temper shows his reaction to be fairly restrained and nowhere near violent and over the top like harry’s.

No one actually knows what these people are really like apart from family members. You can argue amongst yourself as much as you want but no one actually knows the truth as there is a portrayal of them for the public and a totally different one in private.

@polkadotdalmation Yip and when people are stressed they are more likely to react to things.

I really do hope that lessons are learned. It's unreasonable to expect a new Monarch to visit every part of the UK days after their parent dies, whoever came up with that idea needs to give their head a wobble. Normal people would be off on compassionate leave.
And then signing all those documents on a table far too small.

They are either normal or not. Can’t have it both ways.

It's not normally in anyone's circles to be doing official duties days after loosing a parent.
The Queen didn't visit the 3 other nations until months after she became Queen and neither did her Father (he didn't even have a death to greave).
It was far too much pressure that Charles put himself under. It might have seemed a good idea but it really wasn't

I think that was always likely anyway. It wasn’t likely Archie and Lilibet would become working royals.

Issue is William who is Sibling-less in a work sense. But if he can manage it there should be no reason for Charlotte and Louis to become working royals.

they need to reassess what they do and how.
