It si noce to see the royal family from differnt countries in the news. They all look charming , prestige and with lots of expensive clothing with them all the times. However, this group of peole always enjoy certain previledge that other people never have it. Their life will always attract lots of attention from mthe mass media. They are rich and special in front of other people's eyes but their privacy will always being interrupted. In fact , do they really have privacy will also be another question. Somebody really treausre them a a lot but some people think that they are just waiting for the world to feed them all the time and they don't really work on anything. Well, share with us about your opinion.

I think of them like anyone else. They are normal people, they just have a lot more money than the rest of us. They are not anymore special or less special. I do think Princess Diana did a lot of good things for humanity. She was a very special person :)

I think that the royal families throughout the world have a lot of poise and they do a wonderful job with their fame considering the fact that most of them are born into the position. That said, there are a lot of times that I don't really understand why there are still royal families because for the most part they are just a symbolic figurehead and other than that there really isn't a lot of reason in today's society for their position.

I think it depends on the country.There are countries were royal families have a status of demigods, but in advanced countries they are like any other rich people.Some work and pay taxes, some don't.The media treat them like they were famous actors or singers,I think that the status of modern royal family is very similar to that of a Hollywood stars:media,media and again media.They follow you everywhere!

when i was a kid i am always day dreaming becoming a princess, it looks to me like a fairytale coz of their castles, dresses and accesories. Lately I visited a castle in germany and hungary, and it made me think where the hell did they get a lot of money to build such big castles with great fortunes inside it.

Although I do not worship them, nor do I care about what pleasantries they have or what they do in their public and private lives; I respect them. Royal families are a symbol of what once was. In the animal kingdom, the species survives and produces more socities that exist through time. These animal societies (bee and ant) have a queen that they follow by instinct. Our societies also advance by following a leader. How they live is no concern of mine. And although royal families no longer lead nations, they are still a symbol of the greatness of those nations.
