Prince Charles, heir to the British throne, tells Time magazine he sees his job as "worrying" about the people of his country and trying to improve their lives. Time's cover story, "The Forgotten Prince," which was published Thursday, was based on extensive interviews with the prince at various royal houses and with the people around him. In one interview, he explained why he spends so much time as an advocate for the environment and other causes. "I feel more than anything else it's my duty to worry about everybody and their lives in this country, to try to find a way of improving things if I possibly can," he said. Charles, who turns 65 in November, has spent most of his life as his mother's heir. While Queen Elizabeth II has cut back on her schedule, she apparently has no intention of abdicating, and her mother lived to 102. But those who work with Charles say he is not eager to be king, that he sees the monarchy as restrictive. One aide said the prince hopes to accomplish as much as he can before "the prison shades close." Charles recently became a grandfather. Prince George was baptized Wednesday, and one of the photos released by the royal family shows the queen with three generations of future kings. "It's everybody else's grandchildren I've been bothering about, but the trouble is if you take that long a view people don't always know what you're on about," Charles told Time. The story's title is based on the greater celebrity of the next generation of royals, Prince William and his Kate, duchess of Cambridge, and Prince Harry.
