Queen Victoria did not pick which child of hers to came after her. Her oldest male child (Albert Edward) automatically became Prince of Wales, and next in line to the throne. Queen Victoria felt that he was not the best choice and probably would have picked one of her other sons over him to be King. She told someone that she hoped that he would die before she did, because she did not want to imagine him as King.
She also gave him no responsibilities. Her son Leopold (who was about 15 years younger than Albert Edward) had a key to her box, and once when he found Bertie (Albert Edward's nickname) with it said that it was the key to the Queen's box and not for the Prince of Wales and took it from him.
