That picture is deeply disturbing. She reminds me of a dictator in an oppressive regime trying to use her charisma to make people continue to blindly follow her.
This is completely inappropriate body language and behavior, and I sincerely hope an advisor told her to knock it off.
You're right pixiecat, it is completely inappropriate to act this familiar and intimate with kids that you have just met. She's not their auntie, best friend, mom, she's a complete stranger, so what's with acting like you're going to grab them and hug them? As usual she sends kids all the wrong messages, she hasn't got a clue where the boundaries of decent behavior are. It's all about her and how she feels, she couldn't care less if she makes anyone else uncomfortable.
Unfortunately, I doubt she would let anyone advise her, she's not interested in hearing how she can improve. She's already perfect, Sweden's so lucky to have her, just ask her!
Absolutely.
She lacks the intelligence to know about appropriate behavior. Royal or not, you don't just randomly embrace children you've just met. It's not okay.
If I was Victoria (I've given up on King Sleazebag doing anything), I'd force her to meet with advisors and I'd tell her to knock it off or else lose her "work". It makes the family look even worse.
HarryFan-I'm not sure. That is definitely not Sofia's mother. She must have been someone affiliated with the center that hosted this event.
