Every Adult In “Harry Potter” Let Us Down At Some Point And That’s Important a 900 page dissertation by me
And that includes Joanne Kathleen Rowling a tear stained afterword by me
Hagrid Is The Exception a rebuttal by me
The Time Hagrid Told Voldemort How to Take Out Something Protecting an Object that Grants Immortality When He Was Drunk and Other Well-Meaning Fuck Ups a lengthy chapter
You’re Absolutely Right a retraction
How dare you assume Molly Weasley has done anything wrong ever
That Time Molly Yelled At The Twins And Ron For Saving Harry From Abuse And Starvation, Thus Likely Communicating To The Abused Kid In Her Presence That His Welfare Was Less Important Than Not Borrowing The Car, That Time Molly Was Utterly Condescending About How Harry Is A Child And Doesn’t Deserve To Know Anything In A Way That Probably Heightened His Determination To Prove Otherwise, That Time Molly Said The Twins Put Together Aren’t As Good As Any Of Their Brothers Over OWL Results That They Worked Hard On And Were Proud Of, That Time Molly Forcibly Cut Her Adult Son’s Hair Right Before His Wedding, That Time Molly Spent A Year Being Mean And Rejectful Toward Her Son’s Fiancee, That Time Molly Sent Hermione A Deliberate “Fuck You” Present For Easter Because She Believed A False Story Written In Witch Weekly Without Making Any Attempt To Ask The People Actually Involved, Those Times She Made Her Youngest Son’s Christmas Sweaters His Least Favorite Color, And Every Time She Belittled Her Husband’s Hobby, The Twins’ Interests, And Bill’s Appearance Because She Couldn’t Be Bothered To Understand Or Value Or Even Be Kind About Them a detailed reminder that no one’s perfect and sometimes what one person doesn’t mind or see hits another person hard
Can this summon somebody who knows what Minerva Mcgonagall did wrong, besides following orders to leave Harry with the Dursleys?
How Minerva McGonagall Bait-And-Switched Harry By Giving Him And Ron Points For Disobeying Directions With The Troll And Then Freaking Out At Them And Taking 150 Points From Gryffindor The Next Time They Did So With Absolutely No Disciplinary Issues In Between, And How This Feels A Lot Like Fudge Reassuring Harry They Don’t Expel People For Blowing Up Their Aunts And Then Deliberately Pushing For Harry’s Expulsion The Next Time He Did Underage Magic a treatise on how not to handle discipline
and also
That One Time Minerva McGonagall Dismissed Harry’s Suspicion That Someone Was Trying To Steal The Sorcerer’s Stone By Asserting The Utterly Ridiculous Premise That No One Could Steal The Stone And There Couldn’t Possibly Be Any Danger And Harry Should Stop Worrying His Little Immature Head About Such Silly Things And Go Play Outside, Thus Ensuring That Harry Would Consider Himself The Only Person In Any Position To Do Anything About The Threat And Dealing Another Blow To Harry’s Ability To Believe That Adults Could Be Confided In Or Trusted To Help With Problems an instruction book on how not to get children to calm down and stay out of trouble and have faith in the adults charged with their safety and care
