I agree.. Her relationship with her three eldest has always fascinated me. I think some of that comes from the fact, that she was, shall we say, a bit over-confident in herself and a perfectionist. Her father and mother treated her like the princess she was and lavished their love on her. Albert's tutelage of her made her incredibly brilliant, that with her self-confidence, made her a very independent thinking princess at the time.
When she had Willy, and he was injured during birth physically with his arm, I don't think she could ever really accept a child who had somewhat of a physical handicap.
That coupled with his paternal grandparents' impressions on him, left him somewhat at a difficult crossroads with his mother.
Many of these women in this family seem to have such difficult and sad relationships with their oldest son...you see somewhat of a pattern.
