Who's curse is it? Whoever's wish is being fulfilled. Regina's wish was her happy ending in 1x01. But the Dark Curse didn't make her happy (2x17), Henry did. (3x09)

And Henry had nothing to do with the Dark Curse, because Emma and Baelfire came to the LWM by their own means Not really. Her wish was to take away everyone else's (most importantly, Snow's). She thought that would make her happy (which we all know it didn't.) Regina said in 1x01 that the curse would take them away to somewhere horrible where the only happy ending would be her OWN. And when Snow asked Regina why she did this Regina responds with "because this is my happy ending." So I disagree that her wish was to take away everyone's happy ending. Her wish was to finally get her own happy ending, it just so happened that for her to get her happy ending everyone else couldn't get theirs.
